Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study compares the effect on BMI of two different treatment options for obesity in childhood. Families with at least one obese child and parent are invited to join the project. The hypothesis is that family camp gives an additional reduction in BMI compared to a less intensive family lifestyle school.
