This means that there will be more adults down the road with chronic conditions, such as diabetes — which will be costly for patients and the system alike. Overall, the US healthcare system rewards doctors and hospital for treating sick people with expensive treatments — leaving costly gaps in prevention, resulting in more expensive treatments.

That helps explain why diabetes rates are also rising, and why roughly 30% of adults have high blood pressure. More obese children means there will be more adults down the road with chronic conditions like diabetes — which can't be cured, only managed — and these diseases in turn increase the risk of further complications, such as kidney disease and stroke., and costs the US a total of $245 billion per year.
