Teach Media Literacy to Inoculate Children Against Food Advertising Current health education programs often teach children to understand advertising, to see through messages targeted at teens, and to resist exploitation. Buffering children from cigarette and alcohol advertising is often done in an attempt to teach "media literacy." Food advertising should be added.

This should be our approach to all the chronic illnesses from which the vast majority of people suffer.
