I guess the first lesson should be a healthy diet, followed strictly and reasonably. If we build some awareness among children about healthy eating habits, obesity can be effectively be fought against. There should also be a promotion of healthy exercise habitsa, like walking, swimming or even cycling, depending on the gender and age of the person.
