How to treat childhood obesity and picky eating

Patient's question:

Boy, 3 years old. Recently, I've noticed that my child is getting fatter and eating more. He likes to lie down after meals. Please ask: How can I treat my child's obesity and picky eating?

Doctor's answer:

If a child suffers from obesity, parents should first try to change the symptoms by increasing their exercise and controlling their diet. Aerobic exercises such as swimming or jogging can be arranged for the child. More fruits like apples, kiwis, and carrots should be included in the child's diet. High-calorie foods such as biscuits, macadamia nuts, and cupcakes should be avoided. Also, the child should not be allowed to eat excessively at one time and should be encouraged to exercise more.
During the treatment of pediatric obesity, if the symptoms are severe, parents should take the child to a regular hospital for targeted treatment in a timely manner. Avoid treatment.
