Solutions Health & Wellness Teens Talk page is now active and has published it's first topic. Allyyssa is a 14 year old teenager who is in charge of the page. She has interviewed her friends and is now reaching out to others to respond to the discussion.
The goal is to get teens to begin to pay attention to their health now as it is becoming a major problem that can lead to the onset of diseases earlier than it would if they maintained a healthy life. Teens are now obese at an alarming rate which has caused many diseases such as diabetes, breathing problems, high blood pressure, sleeping problems and heart disease. In fact, a recent article published in the New England Journal of Medicine indicates that a new US study has projected that overweight adolescents face alarming increases in the risk of heart disease and premature death as young adults.
Please spread the word to encourage teens to participate. Tap into your sources - family, friends, church members, co-workers, etc. Teens Talk is on a mission to invoke change through lively discussions and active participation. Check it out at www.solutionshealthnwellness.com select Teens Talk.
