Question
My 9-year-old son is much heavier than other children, he has a large appetite and loves to eat meat. How can I treat his obesity?
Answer
Improving child obesity can be approached by cultivating exercise habits and a varied diet. Parents should supervise their children in engaging in aerobic exercises such as jogging, swimming, etc., while also encouraging them to consume high-fiber foods like spinach, carrots, and reduce the intake of high-calorie foods like peanuts, hamburgers. At the same time, help children correct bad habits such as not being active after meals or being picky about food. If the child’s obesity situation is severe, seek medical attention promptly and receive professional treatment to avoid blind treatment.
