Patient's question:
Baby girl, just 2 years old. Over the past year, I've noticed that she's getting fatter and eating a lot. She loves lying down after meals. I would like to ask: How should pediatric obesity caused by a love of meat be treated?Doctor's answer:
Childhood obesity can first involve setting exercise levels and changing dietary habits. You can start by teaching your child to swim, as water resistance during swimming is much greater than air resistance during land-based exercises, leading to faster fat burning. High-fiber vegetables like winter melon and tomatoes should be eaten more frequently. Children should not consume high-calorie foods like cakes or macadamia nuts. Additionally, avoid letting your child sleep immediately after eating or snack while lying on the sofa. During the treatment for obesity, if the child's condition is severe, it is essential to take them to a reputable hospital for treatment.
