#Hispana Global#statistics#childhood obesity#health
Answer
From what I’ve shared on Hispana Global, there’s a post by Migdalia Rivera with three key numbers every mom should know:
- 38 – 38.2% of Hispanic children ages 2 to 19 have overweight or obesity
- 22 – 22% of young Hispanics were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2009
- 35 – By 2050, 35% of young people in the U.S. will be Latino
Would you like ideas on how to talk about these numbers with your kids without scaring them?
