Though I'm sure at least a handful of teen deaths each year must have some link to obesity, I can't find any stats on that. There are tons of stats about overall deaths linked to obesity, as well as health risks to teens. Granted I only Googled the phrase in about 3 different forms and only scanned the first couple of pages for each. But I think that actual teenage death of obesity is not the main issue, as much as other health problems, and death later in life. I think many teen deaths due to heart attacks and related issues often involve a person with heart disease or other genetic issues. Though someone may very well improve on my answer here and delete me entirely, I can say it can't be too many or it'd be easier to find the stats.

However, studies have shown that obesity increases the risk of premature death in teenagers due to these health complications.
