How to treat child obesity effectively

Patient's question:

Girl baby, currently 3 years old. Recently, I found that my child is getting fatter. At the same time, she can eat several bowls of rice at one meal and doesn't like to exercise. Please ask: How can obesity in children be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

Once a child develops obesity, parents should first change the child's condition through exercise and diet. They can start by increasing the intensity of the exercise for the child, such as jogging. Gradually add more distance, like half a lap at a time. Eat more high-fiber vegetables like winter melon and tomatoes. Make sure the child avoids high-calorie foods like cakes, potato chips, and cola. Also, do not let the child lie down motionless after eating. During the treatment of obesity in children, if the above methods do not alleviate the child's symptoms, it is important to visit a hospital to identify the cause and prevent the condition from worsening.
