Question
I am eight months pregnant and already on maternity leave. Recently, I saw a case on TV about pediatric obesity. The child who fell ill had a habit of overeating. I want to ask the doctor, what are the causes of pediatric obesity?
Answer
Dear friend, the occurrence of pediatric obesity is mainly due to symptoms caused by poor dietary habits. After a child is born, they need to have a reasonable diet. First, they should not overeat and should avoid binge eating. At the same time, they need to have a balanced intake of vegetables, fruits, and meats. Additionally, it’s important to take them for regular physical activities, which can help prevent the occurrence of childhood obesity.
