Many Normal-Weight Teens Feel FatMany Normal-Weight Teens Feel FatAt a time when much of the Western world #xis focusing on obesity problems, even teens who are at a healthystraw bagweight may develop a distorted body image.That’s what German researchers found after surveying nearly 7,000 11- to 17-year-olds,google优化, asking them to describe their bodies. Options included far too thin, a bit too thin, just the right weight, a bit too fat and far too fat.About 75 percent of the kids fell into the normal-weight category. However, half the normal-weight girls and a quarter of the normal-weight boys still described themselves as being too fat.When those teens were given quality-of-life and self-esteem tests, normal-weight children who believed they were fat scored as poorly as children who really were obese. And normal-weightstraw bagchildren who felt fat actually scored worse on family relationship questions than obese children. The findings were published in the current issue of Deutsches ?rzteblatt International, a German medical journal.Although the data come from Germany, studies in the United States also suggest body image concerns are prevalent among American teens and adolescents. A 1999 study from the American Dietetic Association found that 55 percent of 7- to 12-year-old girls said they wanted to be thinner.The data suggest that efforts to address unhealthy weight gain and obesity among young people have the the potential for “collateral” damage in normal-weight kids, who may develop self-esteem problems. An accompanyingstraw bageditorial#x noted that adolescents are exposed to considerable social pressure to be thin.相关的主题文章:
