Question
How should one treat child obesity?
Answer
When a child is overweight, increasing physical activity and controlling diet can help alleviate symptoms. Encourage the child to participate in age-appropriate sports such as swimming and jogging. During this time, the diet should include more foods like cucumbers, tomatoes, and kiwis, and avoid high-calorie, high-fat foods such as hamburgers, French fries, and cookies. At the same time, help the child correct habits like disliking exercise or overeating. If the above methods do not alleviate the child’s obesity symptoms, please seek medical attention promptly to understand deeper causes to avoid worsening the condition.
