Question
Dear parents, our daughter is currently 7 years old, and the parents have noticed that the child is getting fatter and fatter, eating without control and enjoys lying down. How should we treat child obesity and picky eating problems?
Answer
If a child is suffering from obesity, parents should start with the child’s exercise and diet. Arrange suitable sports such as swimming and jogging, and encourage the consumption of foods like cucumbers, tomatoes, and kiwis, while limiting the intake of high-calorie foods like biscuits, macadamia nuts, and small cakes. Control the child’s diet to avoid overeating, and more physical activity is beneficial for improving obesity. Severe symptoms of pediatric obesity should seek treatment from regular hospitals.
