Obesity has been identified as one of the top public health crises facing Americans today because it is
increases the risk of other serious medical conditions such as: high cholesterol, hypertension, sleep
apnea, adult onset diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and depression. In an effort to curb adult obesity,
many agencies have turned their attention to childhood obesity. In 2012, the government passed
