Question
Dear parents, our daughter is currently 7 years old. We’ve recently noticed that she has gained weight, has a large appetite, and is not very active. We would like to know the best treatment methods for child obesity.
Answer
To improve a child’s obesity, it’s essential to arrange their exercise and diet properly. First, encourage your child to engage in aerobic activities such as jogging, hill climbing, and swimming, while also increasing the intake of high-fiber foods like spinach and carrots, and avoiding high-fat foods such as fried chicken and cakes. Parents should guide their children to change their habits of not wanting to exercise and being picky about food. If the child’s condition is severe, it should be treated promptly by consulting a doctor to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
