Patient's question:
Boy, he is already 7 years old. Recently, I have observed that my child's weight is much higher than other children's. At the same time, he can eat several bowls of rice in one meal and is also very lazy. Please ask: How can effective treatment be given for children who are obese and do not like vegetables?Doctor's answer:
Changing a child's obesity starts with getting them to love exercise and not be picky eaters. Parents should supervise their children in doing aerobic exercises such as jogging and swimming. During this period, let the child eat some vegetables that are beneficial for improving obesity, such as winter melon and sweet pea puree. It is forbidden to let the child eat fried foods and dried fruit foods, as these are high-calorie, high-fat foods. Also, do not let the child lie down and be inactive immediately after eating. During the treatment of childhood obesity, if the condition is severe, it is recommended that parents first take the child to the hospital for a check-up to determine the cause of obesity and then treat it accordingly.
