Question
My son is 2 years old. This year, I’ve noticed that he’s been getting fatter and has a very large appetite. He likes to lie down after eating. How should we treat a child’s obesity and picky eating?
Answer
To improve a child’s obesity and picky eating, the key is to arrange their exercise and diet properly. Consider having them participate in aerobic activities like swimming or jogging, and provide them with more foods like cucumbers, carrots, and spinach. Avoid fried foods and dried fruits, and control their portion sizes. During the treatment of childhood obesity, if symptoms are severe, be sure to seek medical treatment promptly and avoid blindly believing in certain medications.
