Exercise is a major important part of children's lives today. Unfortunately, this needed exercise does not occur as much as it should. Computer games are radically transforming the way kids play, reducing their outdoor play and turning them indoors. Children need to exercise to burn off energy and fat and to keep their muscles healthy. If no exercise occurs then the sugars in the children's diets are not burnt off and are stored as fat. This fat builds up and this is why so many kids are overweight.
All of these factors add to children being overweight and/or eating an unhealthy diet. So if children eat a lot of junk foods or fast foods then they have more risk of having health problems later in life or being overweight. Where as a child with a healthy diet will have reduced the heath risk by a significant amount and is more likely to live a healthy old age. Therefore, in my opinion, "you are what you eat."
