Question

What should parents do to treat picky eating in children with obesity?

Answer

When a child becomes overweight, parents should develop an appropriate exercise plan and a healthy diet. Encourage the child to engage in aerobic activities such as jogging, hill climbing, swimming, etc., and promote the intake of vegetables like cucumbers, carrots, and spinach, while avoiding high-calorie and high-fat foods like hamburgers, fries, and cookies. At the same time, help the child correct bad habits such as not being active after eating or being picky. During the treatment process, parents should provide reasonable treatment based on the child’s condition, and seek professional guidance from a doctor if the condition is severe.
