Question
Dear parents, my daughter is three years old. Lately, I’ve noticed that she seems to be getting fatter and eating more than other children. She also doesn’t like to exercise. How can we treat child obesity and laziness effectively?
Answer
For children who are overweight, parents need to control their diet and increase their physical activity. Swimming can be a good option as water-based exercises burn fat faster. It’s recommended to include high-fiber vegetables like winter melon and tomatoes in their diet, while avoiding fried and high-calorie foods. It’s important to strictly control their diet, avoid overeating, and encourage more physical activity to aid in weight loss. During the treatment period, parents should handle the situation reasonably based on the child’s condition. If the condition is severe, seek medical attention promptly to confirm the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
