Publicerad 18 mars 2019 Redan i sexårsåldern drabbas barn med övervikt och fetma av nedsatt insulinkänslighet, blodfettsrubbning och högt blodtryck. Det visar en avhandling från Sahlgrenska akademin. Om barnen inte får hjälp innebär det en kraftigt ökad risk att senare i livet utveckla diabetes typ 2 och andra hjärt-kärlsjukdomar. – Trots att studien omfattar en ganska liten grupp barn såg vi att
