Appropriate assessment of overweight and obesity in adolescents is an essential aspect of medical care. During adolescence, weight gain carries a higher risk of obesity in adults and metabolic syndrome. The onset of adolescence is a high risk period for weight gain due to the synergy of natural metabolic changes. One of the first potential health effects of abnormal weight gain during this period is earlier puberty, usually called low back pain. The obesity epidemic is clearly implicated in the national trend at earlier stages. Activation of leptin from the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, combined with insulin resistance and increased adiposity can lead to higher estrogen levels which are linked to breast development. Physical activity has been directly linked to overweight among young overweight adolescents. In fact, when several sedentary diets and activity behaviors were studied, the only factor that was found to be predictive of higher BMI in adolescents was a decrease in physical activity.
