Patient's question:
Daughter, just 9 years old, in recent weeks, I noticed that my child is getting fatter, and also, she can eat several bowls of rice at a meal. She likes to lie down after finishing a meal. Please ask: How should obesity and picky eating in children be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
To help children reduce the symptoms of obesity, it is important to arrange appropriate exercise and diet for them. Parents can encourage their children to engage in activities that are beneficial for combating obesity, such as jogging, swimming, etc. During this period, children should be encouraged to eat more foods like cucumbers, tomatoes, and kiwis. They should avoid high-calorie snacks such as macadamia nuts and cookies. It is also important to help children break the habit of being inactive after meals or binge-eating. When treating childhood obesity, if the symptoms are severe, parents should take their children to a regular hospital for targeted treatment instead of seeking.
