I chose this article as it promotes ways of keeping a good body image for children by Jamie Oliver and its called ''Body image key to healthy habits'' ''Campaigns promoting healthy eating - such as Jamie Oliver's school dinners initiative - encourage positive body image in teenagers, a study has found.
Ekant Veer at the University of Bath said they were more effective than campaigns telling overweight teens they needed to slim down.
Over 300 obese or overweight school children aged 13 to 18 were studied.
Mr Veer said shows such as Mr Oliver's were an "starting point" for encouraging children to be healthier.
In the study the teenagers were split into two groups, one of which was asked to draw a picture of themselves - subtly leading them to think about their body image.''
