根据儿童基金会最近的一份报告,肥胖症在全球学龄儿童中比体重不足更为普遍,影响到大约1.88亿青年人。 According to a recent UNICEF report, obesity has become more common than underweight among school-aged children globally, affecting about 188 million young people. 自2000年以来,肥胖率增加了三倍,达到9.4%,体重不足的儿童从13%下降到9.2%。 Obesity rates have tripled since 2000, reaching 9.4%, while underweight children have decreased from 13% to 9.2%. 儿童基金会将这种上升归因于垃圾食品营销,并呼吁各国政府限制不健康的食品营销,禁止学校的垃圾食品。 UNICEF attributes the rise to junk food marketing and calls for governments to restrict unhealthy food marketing and ban junk food in schools.
