Question
My child is a 1-year-old boy. I have noticed that he has a lot of fat on his body, and he eats a lot, plus he is particularly lazy. How should I treat child obesity best when they don’t like to exercise?
Answer
To address child obesity, it’s essential to start by encouraging exercise and avoiding picky eating. You can begin by having him engage in aerobic exercises such as jogging, climbing hills, or swimming. During this time, provide vegetables that help improve obesity, such as winter melon and green beans. Avoid giving him high-fat foods like fried chicken or cakes. Help him correct the habit of not liking to move after eating or overeating. If the child’s obesity is severe, it is recommended that parents first take their child to the hospital to check the cause of obesity and then treat it accordingly.
