BOOK
|
| Authors:
Claudia M. González, MS. RD. & Lourdes Alcañiz,
MA |
 |
Gordito
Doesn't Mean Healthy is the very first
book about obesity in Latino children. Traditional
Latino culture believes "a gordito or fat
baby is a healthy baby". This idea was
born in a time and place when food wasn't as
plentiful and those with more weight had a greater
chance of survival should food become scarce.
This cultural belief, along with some genetic
factors specific to Latinos, is resulting in
an obesity epidemic in the Latino community
among both children and adults.
Written
by a nutritionist and a health reporter, both
Hispanic mothers, Gordito Doesn't Mean
Healthy is the first book of its kind,
offering information, strategies and tools to
prevent and manage obesity in children.
