Childhood obesity continues to be a serious national health issue, according to statistics from the American Obesity Association. Over 30 percent of children (ages 6-11) are currently classified as overweight and over 15 percent are obese. More than half of these overweight children will likely remain obese into adulthood. These startling facts show that today's overweight children are in danger of also incurring major health problems, including juvenile diabetes, asthma, and hypertension. CHEF HARRY HAS A SOLUTION. As an overweight youth himself, Harry Schwartz was made fun of by other kids, leaving him with extremely low self-esteem.
