ABSTRACT
A case-control study on some risk factors causing overweight and obesity in children 4-6 years at Hanoi inner city was set up. The case group was including children with weight for height over +2SD. The control group was composed of normal children with the same place, age and sex, without affected congenital disease. The findings showed that risk factors of children suffering from overweight include physical inactivity and long time sitting in front of television.
