Yale University did a series of experiments to test the effects of TV food commercials. They found children between the aged 7 to 11 who watched 30 mins of cartoon with food commercials ate 45 percent more snack food. The increased amount of snacking could lead to a weight gain of 10 pounds a year, may be it's time to turn off the TV and have a good old fashion dinner with the family. What do you think?
