Patient's question:
Boys, just 8 years old, this year, noticed that there is a lot of fat on my child's body. Also, he can eat several bowls of food in one meal and doesn't like to exercise. Please ask: How can child obesity with a meat-loving diet be treated most effectively?Doctor's answer:
If a child is overweight, they can first increase their physical activity and control their diet to alleviate the symptoms. They can start learning to swim, as the resistance of water during swimming is much greater than the resistance of air during land-based exercise, leading to faster fat consumption. Foods like carrots and spinach are also helpful in combating obesity. High-calorie foods like sunflower seeds and burgers should not be given to children. Moreover, if a child likes to lie down after eating, parents must help them correct this unhealthy behavior. During the treatment for childhood obesity, if the symptoms are severe, parents should take the child to a reputable hospital for targeted treatment instead of blindly treating the condition.
