It is suggested that television viewing may cause obesity in at least some children and adolescents and the potential effects of obesity on activity and the consumption of calorically dense foods are consistent with this hypothesis.

Increasing dietary calcium suppresses adipocyte in‐tracellular Ca2+ and thereby modulates energy metabolism and attenuates obesity risk, and this concept of calcium modulation of adiposity was further evaluated epi‐demiologically in the NHANES III data set.

782 Citations2001Richard J. Deckelbaum, Christine L. Williams
Novel approaches in the prevention and treatment of childhood overweight and obesity are urgently required, and consideration must be focused on prevention of obesity in women of child-bearing age, excessive weight gain during pregnancy, and the role of breast-feeding in reducing later obesity in children and adults.

Estimates indicate that a 1000-mg calcium intake difference is associated with an 8-kg difference in mean body weight and that calcium intake explains approximately 3% of the variance in body weight.

Findings are supported by clinical and epidemiological data demonstrating a profound reduction in the odds of being obese associated with increasing dietary calcium intake and dairy sources of calcium exert a significantly greater anti-obesity effect than supplemental sources in each of these studies.

High‐Ca diets suppress adipocyte [Ca2+]i and thereby reduce energy storage and increase thermogenesis during Kcal restriction, thereby facilitating weight loss by stimulating lipolysis and inhibiting lipogenesis in calorically (Kcal)‐restricted (70% of ad lib) aP2‐agouti transgenic mice.

The consistent lack of relationship between children's fruit juice intake and growth parameters in this study does not support previous recommendations to limit the intake of 100% fruit juice to <12 ounces/day and results consistently indicated no statistically significant differences in children's height, body mass index, or ponderal index related to fruit Juice intake.
