A member asked:

How does obesity affect a child's learning abilities in school?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

More fatigue: Kids who are obese often have difficulty sleeping at night- and can even develop sleep apnea- this leads to poor nighttime rest and daytime fatigue making learning very difficult. Also, poor diet can negatively affect concentration and attention spans.
