Question

A 10-year-old boy, in elementary school, has recently been observed to have an increased amount of meat in his diet and a higher appetite. He is not active most of the time. How should one treat a child who is overweight and loves meat?

Answer

When a child is overweight, it is important to establish a fitness plan and healthy diet. Activities like swimming and climbing hills can be beneficial for obesity. Encourage the consumption of fruits and vegetables while avoiding high-calorie foods. Cultivate a habit of physical activity in the child to prevent fat accumulation. If the above methods do not improve the situation, it is important to seek medical attention promptly to avoid the worsening of the condition.
