Recent increases in the prevalence of overweight among school-aged children (1) and adults (2) in the United States have prompted concern about an increase in overweight among preschool-aged children and a possible association with the foods provided by the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). To assess and compare weight status and nutrient intake among WIC participants and other low-income children, CDC analyzed data from phase 1 of the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III), 1988-1991. This report summarizes the results of this analysis, which indicate that foods provided by WIC are not associated with increased overweight among preschool-aged children.
美国学龄儿童（1）和成年人（2）中超重患病率最近有所上升，这引发了人们对学龄前儿童超重情况增加以及与妇女、婴儿和儿童特别补充营养计划（WIC）所提供食物之间可能存在关联的担忧。为了评估和比较WIC参与者与其他低收入儿童的体重状况和营养摄入情况，美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）分析了1988 - 1991年第三次全国健康和营养检查调查（NHANES III）第一阶段的数据。本报告总结了该分析结果，结果表明WIC提供的食物与学龄前儿童超重增加无关。
