A generation of children are at risk of dying younger than their parents - unless they change their lifestyle. The British Heart Foundation says one in three kids are overweight or obese. The reports found 80 percent are not eating the recommended five portions of fruit and veg a day. Dr Rebecca Payne is a Christian GP.
She told Premier's Marcus Jones on the News Hour of some ways to make sure children are getting their five a day:
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
