Screen time, adiposity and cardiometabolic markers: mediation by physical activity, not snacking, among 11-year-old children

Abstract: The adverse association of screen time with adiposity was partly mediated by physical activity, but not by snacking. The association of screen time with TC/HDLC ratio was almost completely mediated by adiposity. Our results may suggest that future efforts in society and public health should be directed to replace screen time with physical activity for reducing children's adiposity and cardiometabolic risk.

“…9,10 Diet habits and physical activity are also negatively affected by sedentary screen time, as some children sit for long hours and eat unhealthy food while playing video games, which may lead to several short-or long-term health problems, especially obesity and heart disease. [11][12][13] Another adverse effect of prolonged screen time is the development of addictive behavior. [14][15][16] This study addresses the indirect role of parents in increasing their children's screen time, and whether a change in parental discipline practices can reduce children's screen time, which may therefore prevent potential developmental, social, physical, and mental health problems in their children.…”
