| Sumario: | Introduction: The incremental swift pervasiveness and the
associated health consequences, obesity is perceived as one of
the most genuine health problems of the early 21st century. The
predominance of obese and flabbiness expanded considerably
over current decades. The reasons for stoutness are dramatic
and multifactorial. Research on childhood obesity has shown
the role of race, ethnicity, and social factors, for example, family
income, family structure, and community protection.
Aim: To devise an expert system that will provide timely
educational resources to the children, parents and schools to
educate about the impact of junk food, low physical activity and
poor lifestyle, as well as effect of excessive weight on overall
health of a person in the form of short videos.
Materials and Methods: To create an expert system data will
be collected, preprocessed and analysed statistically. Sample
schools from urban and semi-urban regions would be identified
for the study. Data from various sources will be integrated for
better data analysis and a questionnaire will be structured to
assess subject readiness. After assessing web-based and
mobile-based expert system will be developed for counseling and
bringing awareness on behaviour and lifestyle of the participant.
Conclusion: The diet of kids is a serious concern now-a-days.
The obesity leads to health concerns especially among even in
the younger generations aging 5-12 years. There is an urgent
need of system that can automatically track obese stages and
recommend appropriate diet. |
