Whatever the causes, the statistics are staggering.
.
In central Indiana, 43 percent of kids221,000 residents aged 0 to 19
yearsare either overweight or obese, according to 2013 data from the
Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey. In 10 years, that rate is on
pace to hit 53 percentresulting in 75,000 more overweight and obese kids
than there are now.
.
Jump INs goal is to break that trend, and get the central Indiana obesity
rate down to 38 percent by 2025. If it succeeds, that will mean nearly
84,000 fewer kids being overweight or obese than currently expected.
.
If it doesnt, it means more than half of central Indiana residents will be
starting their adult livesand their first jobsalready suffering the health
complications that come from being overweight.
.
Employers and health insurers, used to balancing out the expensive health
claims of older workers with premiums from younger workers, will have
health claims coming from both ends of the age spectrum.
.
Health care providers and drugmakers will have to figure out if things
that have worked so farbariatric surgery for obesity or insulin for
diabeticswill remain effective during 40, 50 or even 60 years of obesity
and diabetes.
.
The Jump IN initiative is forming committees to work on six fronts at
once: nutrition, physical activity, communication and public awareness,
employer wellness, public policy and data and analytics.
