Abstract

While common childhood obesity is well defined from a somatic perspective, its consequences are manifold, and the outcomes of medical treatment often remain inadequate. Most recent studies point to a polygenic susceptibility to the development of the condition within an obesogenic environment. The only medical treatment option, therefore, is to address this multifactorial environment (diet, sedentary lifestyle, screen time, sleep, emotional state, family and social context, economic situation, etc.) in collaboration with the adolescent and their parents in order to prevent the resulting physical, psychological, and social complications. To illustrate this type of approach, we describe the patient therapeutic education program implemented at Maison de Solenn.
