Question
Dear Baby, just turned 2 years old, recently found that the child’s weight has increased at home, appetite has increased and does not like to exercise, please ask: how to treat pediatric obesity and overweight for the best effect?
Answer
When a child develops obesity, parents should first change the child’s situation through exercise and diet. For pediatric obesity, more aerobic exercises such as climbing hills, swimming, etc., should be done, and more vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, etc., should be eaten. High-calorie foods such as cakes, potato chips, and cola should be strictly avoided, and children should not be allowed to lie down immediately after eating. During the treatment of pediatric obesity, if symptoms are severe, it is necessary to take the child to a regular hospital for targeted treatment to avoid blind treatment.
