Children who report personal experiences of racial discrimination are likelier to develop obesity, a study has found.
Seven researchers published the study Tuesday in JAMA Network Open. They compared the waist circumference, height, weight and self-reported experiences of racism of 6,463 youths ages 9 to 11 who participated in a national survey from 2017 to 2020.
The study builds on emerging research showing that racism puts children at higher risk of poor mental and physical health, said co-author Adolfo Cuevas, an assistant professor in the Center for Anti-Racism, Social Justice & Public Health at New York University. Since children cannot change their race or ethnicity, he added, the study urges adults to protect them from feeling helpless and hopeless by shielding them from racism.
Of the 6,463 children who participated in the national survey, 146 were Asian or Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, 679 identified as Black, 1,173 as Hispanic or Latino of any race and 19 were American Indian. An additional 3,860 were White, 553 were multiracial and 33 described their race as other.
