Question
Dear reader, my daughter is currently 7 years old. Recently, I’ve noticed that she has gained a lot of weight and has a very large appetite. She doesn’t like to exercise either. How should we treat her obesity and picky eating for the best effect?
Answer
If a child is suffering from obesity, parents should first improve the symptoms by increasing the amount of exercise and controlling the diet. Activities such as swimming and hill climbing are particularly effective for weight loss, and it is recommended to give children some vegetables that are beneficial for improving obesity, such as winter melon and green beans. High-calorie foods like cookies, macadamias, and small cakes should be avoided as much as possible. It is crucial to cultivate a habit of exercise in children to prevent fat accumulation. If the situation is severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly to determine the exact cause and receive targeted treatment.
