Obesity

Childhood obesity has become the most serious epidemic facing many countries throughout the world. The good news is it’s the most preventable health problem, and the earlier you start the better. Studies have shown that obese infants and toddlers are more likely to become obese children and adults by a process called metabolic programming, meaning that the body of an infant and toddler gets programmed at an early age to overeat and overstore fat, and even overproduce insulin, setting them up for a higher incidence of type II diabetes later on. You will now learn our well-researched L.E.A.N. Program that we have been using successfully for the past ten years to help your infant and toddler get the best lean start.
