Question
Dear Baby, she is just 2 years old. Recently, I’ve noticed that my child seems to have a lot of fat on her body, and she also eats in a very unrestricted manner. She usually doesn’t like to play after eating. How should I treat her obesity?
Answer
If a child is diagnosed with obesity, parents should change their current situation through exercise and diet, such as swimming and climbing hills, which have a good effect on obesity symptoms. Moreover, vegetables like carrots and spinach can also help with weight management. Avoid giving children fried chicken, cakes, and other high-fat foods. Help children correct the habit of not moving after eating or overeating. During the treatment of pediatric obesity, if the symptoms are severe, it is important to take the child to a regular hospital for targeted treatment and avoid blind treatment.
