A Pediatrics study of 4400 U.S. children ages two to 47 months links fetal undernutrition to later obesity. Underweight newborns had less muscle at birth but higher fat later, suggesting early life programming and the need for tailored nutrition and activity from day one to prevent obesity and associated diseases.
