Patient's question:
My little girl is 3 years old. Recently, I've noticed that she is much heavier than other children and can eat several bowls of food in one meal. She is also very lazy. Could you please advise on how to effectively treat child obesity?Doctor's answer:
When a child suffers from obesity, parents can increase their exercise and control their diet to improve the condition. They can start by encouraging aerobic exercises, such as jogging, climbing, and swimming. Additionally, children should be given more high-fiber foods like spinach, carrots, and nuts. Foods high in calories, such as hamburgers, should be avoided. Strictly control the child's diet to prevent overeating. Regular exercise is beneficial for addressing obesity. During treatment, parents should closely monitor the child's condition. If the situation is severe, treatment should be conducted under the guidance of a doctor. Do not treat blindly.
