Emerging obesity among preschool-aged Canadian Inuit children: results from the Nunavut Inuit Child Health Survey / Tracey Galloway, T. Kue Young, Grace M. Egeland.
Title: | Emerging obesity among preschool-aged Canadian Inuit children: results from the Nunavut Inuit Child Health Survey / Tracey Galloway, T. Kue Young, Grace M. Egeland. |
Author(s): | Galloway, Tracey. Young, T. Kue. Egeland, Grace M. |
Date: | 2010. |
In: | International Journal of Circumpolar Health. (2010.), Vol. 69(2) (2010) |
Abstract: | Evaluates growth status of preschool-age Canadian Inuit children, using growth and nutrition data on 388 children aged 3-5 years. Finds that prevalence of obesity is higher than that previously reported in Inuit children and may be occurring at earlier age. Gender difference runs counter to that reported in adults, leading to concern that contemporary growth patterns may result in significant increases in obesity-related illness for young Inuit men. |
