Increased rates of obesity among youth in the last several decades also have led to the emergence of several health problems. Insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome are direct outcomes of increasing obesity rates, which, in turn, lead to the emergence of type 2 diabetes mellitus in youth. Nurses are well positioned to intervene with individual youth and populations at risk to interrupt the cascade of events that lead from obesity to severe health problems.
