Societal stigma of individuals with overweight and obesity is well established, but few remedies have been implemented to address this problem. Women with obesity who were asked their views about strategies to reduce weight stigma in our society say that interventions in the workplace, schools, and healthcare should be prioritized, according to a study by the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at the University of Connecticut.

Birth to age 2 is a critical period for establishing lifelong and healthy dietary preferences and eating habits and preventing childhood obesity. The information that parents receive about feeding their young children, including from marketing, should consistently correspond with advice from health professionals about practices that help children grow up at a healthy weight. However, baby and toddler food and drink products and the marketing messages used to promote them do not always support experts’ recommendations for feeding babies and toddlers.
In this report, we examine the nutritional quality and other characteristics of food and drink products marketed to parents for their babies and toddlers (up to age 3), as well as the messages used to promote these products, and evaluate how well they correspond to expert advice about feeding young children.

Although time spent watching TV did not increase, children and adolescents viewed more television food and beverage advertisements in 2012 than in 2008. This increase was due primarily to an increase in the number of ads aired per hour of TV viewing, according to a new study from the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at the University of Connecticut.
