Patient's question:
My little girl, she is 4 years old. In this year, I noticed that she has a lot of meat on her body. Additionally, she eats more food than most children and likes to lie down after finishing her meal. I would like to ask: How can I treat children who are overweight and love meat?Doctor's answer:
To help children alleviate symptoms of obesity, it is important to arrange appropriate exercise and diet for them. Arrange activities like swimming and jogging within their capacity. During this period, let them consume vegetables that are beneficial for weight loss, such as winter melon and green pea pudding. Strictly prohibit fried foods and dried fruits, as these are high in empty calories and fat. Parents should modify their children's habits of being reluctant to exercise and picky eating. During obesity treatment, parents should tailor the approach to the child's specific situation. If the condition is severe, it is essential to visit a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
