Question
A child weighs 120 jin, and their dietary habits include one set of pancakes for breakfast, two bowls of rice for lunch, and one bowl of rice for dinner. They have never used any weight loss products. What potential dangers can pediatric obesity bring?
Answer
Pediatric obesity can lead to various health issues, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, skeletal problems, and psychological and social impacts. It is recommended to engage in indoor exercises such as squats and prone supports, combined with dietary control to achieve weight loss. Meals should be regular, consisting of three meals a day with fixed portions, and should be light in taste. Vegetables and fruits should be consumed more. Supplements of trace elements such as iron, copper, potassium, sodium, magnesium, molybdenum, phosphorus, silicon, chromium, and nickel should be taken. Avoid excessive intake of seafood and marine products, as well as high-fat meats, desserts, cakes, ice cream, and other high-calorie foods. Reduce or avoid spicy foods.
