National Post:

- Oh look, a "study" in which the media gets all Chicken Little and makes parents paranoid. "Arteries of obese kids may age faster... A study of 70 boys and girls found obese children and teens with abnormal cholesterol had thicker carotid arteries..." What about the fat kids with normal cholesterol? They exist, you know.
Globe and Mail:

- Eat your vegetables - as suspected, supplements don't do the job as well as the real thing.
- And there's that obese children study again, although it turns out only 40 of the 70 kids in the study were obese. Man, people sure do have it in for fat kids, don't they?
