Pamela Salsberry Quotations

Obesity continues to rise in adults. And that risk has increased in children, too. Interventions should begin immediately for children who are already overweight at these young ages.

We don't have physiological data, but our findings suggest that prenatal exposure can be seen as a risk factor. There's such a strong relationship.

Prevention of childhood obesity needs to begin before a woman ever gets pregnant.

It's important for women to understand that their weight status does matter long-term to their children's weight status.

A child's weight at three years is a good prediction of what his weight will be at age five, and so on. Weight states tend to persist over time.
