Question
A boy, just 3 years old, recently, I’ve noticed that the child is getting fatter and fatter, and he is eating more and more. Usually, he doesn’t like to go out to play. How should we treat child obesity effectively if he loves meat?
Answer
When children develop obesity. Parents should alleviate symptoms through exercise and healthy eating. It is recommended to increase aerobic exercises like climbing and swimming, and to consume more high-fiber vegetables such as winter melon and tomatoes. It is forbidden for children to eat fried foods and dried fruits as they are high in calories and fat. Moreover, parents should help correct the child’s bad habit of eating lying down. If parents find the child’s condition severe, they should seek medical attention promptly to determine the cause and receive targeted treatment.
