This report finds that the increase of obesity among young adults age 17 to 24 has reduced the pool of healthy young adults available for military service. The report calls on Congress to strengthen the Child Nutrition Act currently under consideration and pass new child nutrition legislation that will remove junk food from schools and improve nutritional standards for all food available to children in educational settings.
