Question
A boy, just turned 5, recently discovered that my child is overweight and doesn’t like to exercise. How should I treat it?
Answer
To improve obesity symptoms, it’s essential to arrange exercise and diet for the child appropriately. Activities like swimming and climbing slopes are beneficial for obesity, and you can choose to let the child eat some vegetables that help improve obesity, such as winter melon and green beans. High-calorie, high-fat foods such as cakes, dried fruits, and cookies should be prohibited; strictly control the child’s diet to avoid overeating. Increasing exercise is beneficial for improving obesity. If the situation is severe, you should take the child to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment.
