WHO warns inactive youth
The World Health Organization warned that around 240 million adolescents aged 11 to 17 do not get enough physical activity, increasing their risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers. A study of more than 3.2 million adolescents in 140 countries and territories found that they exercised an average of 2.7 days a week, while only 14% were active every day. Physical activity levels had not improved significantly over 15 years and were lower among girls in most countries. The organization called for policies that make movement easier, safer, and more accessible in everyday life, and encourage young people to adopt active habits from an early age.
