Overweight Kids

It is an epidemic caused seemingly by our prosperity: overweight kids munching fast food and forgoing outdoor activities. Or are there other causes? What are the long-term prospects for kids who are overweight? Will they grow into overweight adults? What will be the eventual consequences of overweight children and teens to our society?

Host Steve Becker will talk with experts and answer your questions 'live' about striking a balance between high calorie food and growing kids whose diets put their long-term health at risk.

Health Matters: Television for Life is made possible in part by a partnership with the following community institution. KSPS welcomes their support.
