Nutritionists often write about the obesity epidemic and how
it is affecting children. An August 1 article on Yahoo! Health, “Anorexia
Affecting Young Children in UK: Statistics,” was particularly disturbing, with
statistics on the rate of reported cases of anorexia or bulimia for children 5
to 15 years old in the UK. Over the past three years, nearly 2,100 cases
of these ailments were treated: 98 cases involving patients 5 to 7 years
old, 99 cases involving 8- or 9-year-olds, almost 400 involving children ages
10 to 12, and more than 1,500 involving 13- to 15-year-olds.
The UK is not alone in facing this problem and it’s very likely that the US has
the problem on a comparable scale. In fact, the article pointed out that
the actual numbers of cases are most likely higher than the study
reported. Parents are faced with growing extremes of both dangerously
overweight and underweight children.
“We need to encourage our children to embrace their individuality and teach
them the proper way to feed and exercise their bodies, minds and spirits,” say
Dian Griesel, Ph.D., and Tom Griesel, co-authors of the amazing rapid fat loss
book TurboCharged: Accelerate Your Fat Burning Metabolism, Get Lean Fast and
Leave Diet and Exercise Rules in the Dust (April 2011, BSH). “We need to set the
example. This is the road to a healthy self-esteem and confidence in all
endeavors.”
In TurboCharged, the Griesel’s encourage both men and women of all ages to
accept and work with their natural body structure. The 8-step program
outlined in the book provides a roadmap to optimal health by feeding and
exercising our bodies in the most natural and beneficial way. The authors
honor the uniqueness of each individual, which makes us all human yet different
enough to make the world a very interesting place. They focus on ideal
body composition, which is neither thin nor fat. Rather, it is lean and
muscular, toned and vibrant, healthy and energetic.
