How to diagnose and treat pediatric obesity and laziness

Patient's question:

My boy, he is one year old this year. Recently, I found that he seems to be getting fatter and fatter. Also, he can eat several bowls of food in one meal. When I ask him to exercise, he doesn't want to. Please ask: How should the diagnosis and treatment of child obesity and laziness be carried out.

Doctor's answer:

When a child's body becomes obese, parents should create an exercise plan and a healthy diet for them. Parents need to supervise their children to engage in aerobic exercises like jogging and swimming, and encourage them to eat more high-fiber foods such as spinach and carrots. Foods high in calories, such as biscuits, macadamia nuts, and small cakes, should be avoided. Strictly control the child's diet to prevent overeating. Regular exercise is beneficial for reducing childhood obesity. If the symptoms of childhood obesity are severe during treatment, parents should take their child to a reputable hospital for targeted treatment instead of blindly treating it.
