Question
My daughter is 1 year old, and recently I’ve noticed that she weighs significantly more than other children, and she also eats a lot. Even when I call her to exercise, she’s unwilling. How should I treat pediatric obesity and overweight?
Answer
If you find that your child has pediatric obesity, the first step is to arrange a reasonable exercise and healthy diet plan for your child, allowing them to engage in age-appropriate activities such as swimming and jogging. Additionally, foods like carrots and spinach can help improve obesity, and you should avoid giving your child high-calorie, high-fat foods such as hamburgers, fries, and cookies. Also, don’t let your child stay in bed without moving after eating. In the process of treating pediatric obesity, if the condition is severe, be sure to take your child to a regular hospital for treatment.
