The is a sequential article to an initial review suggesting that Microbiome First medical approaches to human health and wellness could both aid the fight against noncommunicable diseases and conditions (NCDs) and help to usher in sustainable healthcare. This current review article specifically focuses on public health programs and initiatives and what has been termed by medical journals as a catastrophic record of recent failures. Included in the review is a discussion of the four priority behavioral modifications (food choices, cessation of two drugs of abuse, and exercise) advocated by the World Health Organization as the way to stop the ongoing NCD epidemic. The lack of public health focus on the majority of cells and genes in the human superorganism, the microbiome, is highlighted as is the “regulatory gap” failure to protect humans, particularly the young, from a series of mass population toxic exposures (e.g., asbestos, trichloroethylene, dioxin, polychlorinated biphenyls, triclosan, bisphenol A and other plasticizers, polyfluorinated compounds, herbicides, food emulsifiers, high fructose corn syrup, certain nanoparticles, endocrine disruptors, obesogens). The combination of early life toxicity for the microbiome and connected human physiological systems (e.g., immune, neurological), plus a lack of attention to the importance of microbial rebiosis has facilitated rather than suppressed, the NCD epidemic. This review article concludes with a call to place the microbiome first and foremost in public health initiatives as a way to both rescue public health effectiveness and reduce the human suffering connected to co-morbid NCDs.

“…Obesity in adolescents is a complex multifactorial influenced by physiological, socioeconomic, genetic and environmental conditions (Cominato et al, 2021). Overweight in children and adolescents, particularly those who are obese, have a higher risk for gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, and orthopedic complications, sleep apnea, cardiovascular disease, fatty liver, impaired glucose intolerance, and diabetes type 2.…”

Introduction: Obesity is a condition when an individual is overweight beyond normal weight. Adolescents have a risk of obesity which may occur into adulthood that it can have a negative impact on the development of adolescents both physically and psychologically. Parental feeding management has a significant relationship with adolescent food quality. This study aims to determine the relationship between parenting patterns with the risk of obesity in adolescents at SMK IT Raflesia Depok. Method: The method used was an observational quantitative research with analytic design and using a cross sectional study approach. The sample used was 102 samples obtained through the Stratified Random Sampling technique. Measurements were made using height and weight measurements and filling out a questionnaire using a structured instrument. Results: The results of the analysis with the chi square test showed that there was a relationship between parenting pattern with the risk of obesity in adolescents with p value = 0.018 (<0.05). Conclusion: Parenting in accordance with the development of adolescence must also be considered for parents in an effort to overcome the risk of obesity. Keywords: adolescence; obesity risk; parenting patterns
