Michelle Obama’s ‘Let’s Move’ campaign targets childhood obesity, as it affects one third of American children. At least $150 billion is spent every year to treat obesity-related conditions and that number continues to grow. Furthermore, obesity rates tripled in the past 30 years, which could possibly mean that American children will have a shorter lifespan than their parents. The Let’s Move crusade led by Michelle Obama hopes to solve the epidemic of childhood obesity within a generation.
