Patient's question:
Boy, 8 years old. Recently, I've noticed that my child has put on a lot of weight and is also getting hungrier. Additionally, he doesn't like to exercise. I'm asking: How can we effectively treat child obesity when he doesn't like vegetables?Doctor's answer:
When a child's body becomes obese, parents should create a fitness plan and a healthy diet for them. Aerobic exercises like swimming or jogging can be arranged for the child, and they should eat more fruits rich in vitamin C, such as apples and kiwis. It is essential to strictly prohibit the child from consuming high-calorie foods like cakes and chestnuts. The child's diet must be strictly controlled to avoid overeating. Regular exercise is beneficial for changing the child's obesity. During the treatment of childhood obesity, if the above methods do not alleviate the child's obesity symptoms, it is necessary to go to the hospital promptly to identify the cause and prevent the condition from worsening.
