Baja California is 3rd in Obesity (Frontera, 9/14/12, by Angela Torres)

TIJUANA, BC - José Guadalupe Bustamante Moreno pointed out that the State is third, in obesity both in adults and children due to bad eating habits. The spokesperson for the Department of Health indicated that obesity in adults and children has placed Baja California in third place in rank of incidence, after the Federal District.

He explained that despite the strategies deployed to counter their advance, it would be years before families, directly responsible for their children, begin to change their eating habits. "There is a culture of parents not protecting their children, because they are the first ones with overflowing Mexican dishes", he said.

Bustamante Moreno added that it was necessary to be realistic and focus on diabetes, since during the holidays, Mexican food that is usually prepared could affect their health if they lose control of their diet.

"We must learn to talk with a new vocabulary - a new way of saying real things so people can understand," he explained. On the other hand, he mentioned that while you have programs in schools to provide this information, the influence is low. The Secretary of Education has failed to make progress on this issue.

He explained the Ministry of Health and Cofepris are aware of what is happening, but have no authority to make decisions on school curriculum. However, if education, health and parents work together, we might achieve positive results. Even with the presence of junk food in schools, it is the culture learned at home, and what is sold in stores, the street vendors outside of the schools, and other factors that promote obesity.

"This is not going to end by decree. We could report, announce, and train our staff every day, but we still have a culture from 20 years ago. If it does not change today, in 20 more years, they will all not fit in the hospitals with diabetes, obesity, hypertension, blindness, and the amputation of diabetic limbs, and so on", he said. http://www.frontera.info/EdicionEnLinea/Notas/Noticias/14092012/622243.aspx
