How should we diagnose and treat childhood obesity and lack of exercise?

Patient's question:

Baby girl, currently 1 year old. Recently, I've noticed that my child has a lot of meat on her body, and she also eats more food than average children. Additionally, she is particularly lazy. Please ask: if a child is obese and, how should it be diagnosed and treated?

Doctor's answer:

If a child suffers from obesity, parents should start by adjusting their child's exercise and diet. Arrange activities like swimming and jogging within the child's capacity. Eat more high-fiber vegetables, such as winter melon and tomatoes. Avoid giving children high-calorie snacks like macadamia nuts and cookies. Help the child change habits of being inactive after meals or overeating. During the treatment for childhood obesity, if the symptoms are severe, take the child to a reputable hospital for targeted treatment. Avoid treatment.
