Question

The four-year-old boy seems to be getting fatter lately, and he doesn’t have any self-control when eating, and he’s also quite lazy. How should childhood obesity be treated?

Answer

The methods to change a child’s obesity problem include encouraging them to enjoy physical activities and not be picky with food. Parents should supervise their children to participate in aerobic exercises such as jogging, swimming, etc. It is recommended to let children consume some vegetables that can help improve obesity issues, such as winter melon, green beans, etc. Children should avoid eating high-calorie foods such as cakes, macadamias, etc. At the same time, bad habits should also be corrected, such as not being active after meals or being picky. It is suggested that parents closely monitor their child’s condition during treatment, and seek medical treatment in a timely manner if the situation is severe.
