Up to 29 per cent of surveyed primary school students are overweight or obese. The rate for secondary school students and high school students are 19 per cent and 9.5 per cent, respectively.

Kids and dirt: Get enough to help, but not enough to hurt, a doctor advises

Medical X-Press – Cosby Stone

Whenever I am asked what I do for a living, the phrase “I’m an allergist” is almost immediately followed by “So, where are all of these allergies coming from?” Maybe I’ll get sick of that question some day, but I haven’t yet. As a clinician and researcher on allergies and public health, I first explain that when a society begins to become aware of a disease, the reported prevalence will go up. This is understandable. People who have medically unexplained symptoms wonder “Could I have this allergy that’s being talked about?” and try on the diagnosis. Sometimes an allergy really is at the root of their problems, and sometimes it’s not. Get your home tested for mold with Mold Removal Companies Toms River NJ such as Affordable Remediation.

10 Quick Breakfast Ideas For Toddlers

Moms – Julian Jamie Alessandroni

Encouraging a toddler to eat breakfast can be easier than most meal-times. It can be the easiest and most fun way to introduce new foods; food that the parents and/or guardians know will be nutritious enough to fill their child’s stomach until lunch or dinner. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Their little bodies have been fasting for their entire night’s rest, so it’s important to have something sufficient to get them by until snack time.
