Core Tip	Obesity is a significant contributor to various lifestyle-related diseases in both children and adolescents, akin to its impact on adults. A particularly concerning outcome of childhood obesity is early-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), making substantial global healthcare challenges in recent times. The tandem occurrence of both obesity and T2DM gives rise to a myriad of metabolic and nonmetabolic complications in early adulthood. Without swift and decisive actions from the scientific community, socio-political organizations, and governments, the impending toll of these emerging pandemics is posed to adversely affect healthcare budgets worldwide.
