Patient's question:
My little girl, she's one year old. Recently, I've noticed that she seems to be getting fatter and can eat several bowls of food in one meal. She's also particularly lazy. I wonder: How can we effectively treat childhood obesity, especially if the child loves meat?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from obesity, parents need to control their diet and increase their exercise volume. Encourage the child to engage in sports suitable for their age, such as swimming and jogging. Additionally, foods like carrots and spinach can help combat obesity. Children should avoid high-calorie foods such as cakes and macadamia nuts. It is crucial to break the habit of disliking exercise, as it can easily lead to fat accumulation. During the treatment for obesity, if the child's condition is severe, it is necessary to take them to a reputable hospital for proper medical care.
