Question
My daughter is 6 years old, and recently, I’ve noticed that her weight has increased obvious and her appetite has become much greater. She doesn’t like to play or be active. What methods can I use to treat her obesity and lack of exercise?
Answer
For the issue of childhood obesity, you can start by establishing an appropriate amount of exercise for your child and changing her dietary habits. You can arrange for her to engage in activities like swimming or jogging, but make sure the intensity is within her tolerance level. At the same time, provide her with more healthy foods like cucumbers, tomatoes, kiwis, etc., and avoid high-calorie foods such as cakes, chips, and cola. Additionally, do not let her go to sleep immediately after eating or lie on the sofa to eat snacks after meals. If her obesity problem is severe, it is essential to take her to a regular hospital for treatment.
