Question

Dear parents, my daughter is currently 4 years old, and over the past few weeks, I’ve noticed that she seems to be getting fatter and has a very large appetite, and she doesn’t like to exercise. How should we treat child obesity effectively for the best results?

Answer

To address child obesity, it’s first recommended to increase the child’s physical activity level and control their diet to alleviate symptoms. She can start with aerobic exercises such as jogging, climbing hills, and swimming, and consume more fruits rich in vitamin C, like apples and kiwis. Avoid high-calorie foods such as cakes, potato chips, and cola. Establish good eating habits and improve picky eating behaviors. If parents find the situation severe, they should take their child to a doctor for treatment.
