Answer
To address pediatric obesity, you can start by setting a moderate exercise routine and changing your child’s diet. Parents can encourage activities that help combat obesity, such as jogging or swimming. It’s important to have your child consume more fruits like apples, kiwis, and carrots, and avoid high-calorie foods like cakes and macadamia nuts. Also, prevent your child from overeating. If the situation is severe during the treatment of pediatric obesity, it’s essential to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor’s guidance for treatment.
