Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity - National Survey of Children's Health (NSCH)

This dataset includes select data from the National Survey of Children’s Health (NSCH) sponsored by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau of the Health Resources and Services Administration, an Agency in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The dataset includes the percent of children who eat fruits and vegetables less than once a day, 1–5-year-olds who drink sugar sweetened beverages, and infants who are fed anything other than breastmilk of formula before they are 4 months old. This data is used for DNPAO's Data, Trends, and Maps database, which provides national and state specific data on obesity, nutrition, physical activity, and breastfeeding.
