You would be very interested in a lecture by a pediatric endocrinologist in California. It is on YOUTUBE in its entirety under the title "BITTER TRUTH". Enjoy, and I bet your readers would as well. John

Unfortunately childhood obesity is a major problem today. Despite Orlistat being approved for use in pediatric patients the results as far as weight loss is concerned are not impressive at all - similar to placebo in one study. Lifestyle modification with an early intervention seems to be the safest and most rewarding approach.
