Modifiable early-life risk factors for childhood adiposity and overweight: an analysis of their combined impact and potential for prevention
Siân Robinson,Sarah Crozier,Nicholas C. Harvey,Benjamin D Barton,Catherine Law,Keith M. Godfrey,Cyrus Cooper,Hazel Inskip +7 more
TL;DR: Having a greater number of early-life risk factors was associated with large differences in adiposity and risk of overweight and obesity in later childhood, suggesting that early intervention to change these modifiable risk factors could make a significant contribution to the prevention of childhood obesity.
