How to treat child obesity and overweight effectively

Patient's question:

Little girl, just 2 years old. Recently, I noticed that my child is getting fatter and eating more food than average children, and she doesn't like to exercise. I am asking: How can the treatment for child obesity and overweight be most effective?

Doctor's answer:

Once a child develops obesity, parents should first address the situation through exercise and diet. For pediatric obesity, engaging in more aerobic exercises such as hill climbing and swimming is beneficial. Additionally, increasing the intake of vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers is recommended. It is crucial not to let the child consume high-calorie foods such as cakes, chips, and Coca-Cola. Moreover, children should not be allowed to lie down motionless after meals.
During the treatment of pediatric obesity, if the symptoms are severe, parents should promptly take the child to a reputable hospital for targeted treatment. Avoid.
