This illness affects many children in Chile, in the present there is lots of junk food, then the children don´t eat healthy food, and that causes they are fatter. In Chile, the MINSAL, which means Ministerio de Salud, made a study about this matter and it showed that children younger than six years, 24% of them has overweight. The Ministerio de Salud, also said that children who have overweight are situated in the south of our country.
