Question

The boy is 9 years old, chubby, and often eats a lot, preferring play. How do you treat child obesity?

Answer

If a child is suffering from obesity, focus on both exercise and diet. Encourage activities that promote weight loss, such as jogging, swimming, and ensure a diet rich in vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. Limit high-calorie, high-fat foods, such as cakes, dried fruits, and cookies. Additionally, avoid letting the child lie down immediately after eating. If parents find the situation severe, it is recommended to take the child to a doctor quickly to clarify the situation and receive appropriate treatment.
