Childhood obesity: The South African campaigners fighting for healthy food

South African campaigners are fighting childhood obesity by promoting healthy, mainly vegetarian meals like kitchari at schools like Kairos School of Inquiry in Randburg. The global rise in overweight and obese teenagers, especially in South Africa, is linked to the popularity of convenience foods. Unicef advocates for government intervention to restrict unhealthy food marketing to children, while parents like Memory Padi struggle to manage children's weight due to factors like medical treatments and limited resources.
