Question
Dear parents, my daughter is currently 5 years old. This year, I’ve noticed that my child is significantly heavier than other children her age. She also seems to eat excessively and is particularly lazy. How can we treat child obesity effectively?
Answer
To improve the symptoms of obesity in children, it’s important to provide a reasonable balance of exercise and diet. Encourage your child to engage in age-appropriate activities such as swimming and jogging. During this time, include vegetables that are beneficial for improving obesity, such as winter melon and green beans. Avoid giving your child high-calorie foods like peanuts and hamburgers. Also, ensure that your child does not lie down immediately after eating without moving. If parents notice that the child’s condition is severe during treatment, they should definitely take the child to the hospital to clarify the situation and receive targeted treatment.
