Childhood obesity is a global health emergency, often referred to as the "new morbidity" of the 21st century. The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified obesity as one of the most serious public health challenges of our time. In India, the prevalence of obesity among children and adolescents has risen sharply due to the nutrition transition—shifting from traditional diets to high-calorie, processed foods—and the increasing prevalence of sedentary lifestyles driven by screen time.
