Obesity: diagnosis, prevention, and treatment; evidence based answers to common questions.

J J Reilly¹, M L Wilson, C D Summerbell, D C Wilson.

Abstract

Paediatric obesity is now common in the UK, as in other developed countries. A literature search was conducted and evidence based answers to five frequently answered questions sought. Recommendations for diagnosis are given. Although there is no conclusive evidence that the condition is preventable, a number of treatment approaches are promising.
