Abstract
Obesity is a topic that is well known to every American household, especially among
those within the healthcare sector. This fact may be attributed to that the USA as well as other
developed countries are noticing a fast rise on obesity, which in turn creates many health
concerns even among children. It is calculated that approximately more than twenty percent of
children between the ages two to five are or will be at risk to being overweight (cdc.gov, 2014).
Stemming on numerous studies, obesity has been associated with the use of formula feeding
throughout infancy. It has been proven that the cause is its high caloric and protein content that
can be found in formula used to feed these babies. As a result, these infants grow faster and
heavier than those who are breastfed. The need for further education to expectant parents have
been identified, and it will prove to be beneficial in the initiative to decreased childhood obesity.
Breastfeeding has been perceived as evidence of strategy for disease prevention. Amidst
breastfeeding many benefits and/or its effects that have been well documented regarding it, it has
been found recently, that it may prevent childhood obesity. In spite of the multiple benefits of
breastfeeding, its rates continue to be low in many places around the world. Steps to increase the
breastfeeding rates may be; education, parental support during pregnancy and while at work, and
hospital initiative strategies.
