Patient's question:
Girl baby, just 7 years old, recently, I've observed that my child has a lot of meat on her body and also eats more food than average children. She doesn't like to go out to play during the day. Could you please tell me: How to treat child obesity who loves meat?Doctor's answer:
For children with obvious symptoms of obesity, parents should encourage them to engage in more physical activities and avoid picky eating. They should choose exercises suitable for their age, such as swimming or jogging, and consume more fruits rich in vitamin C, like apples or kiwis. Avoid feeding them high-fat foods such as fried chicken or cakes. Also, refrain from allowing them to eat snacks in bed or lie down immediately after meals, as these unhealthy habits can lead to fat accumulation. During the treatment for obesity, if the child's condition is severe, it is essential to take them to a regular hospital for treatment.
