Patient's question:
Girl baby, currently 1 year old. Recently, I've noticed that my child's weight is much heavier than other children's. Additionally, she can eat several bowls of food in one meal and doesn't like to exercise. Please advise: How should pediatric obesity caused by a meat-loving diet be treated?Doctor's answer:
When a child suffers from obesity, parents can increase their physical activity and control their diet to improve the symptoms. For pediatric obesity, more aerobic exercises such as climbing and swimming are recommended. During this period, it is advisable to let the child eat more cucumbers, tomatoes, kiwi, and similar foods. Foods high in calories like cookies, macadamia nuts, and small cakes should be avoided. Additionally, parents should help the child break bad habits, such as being inactive after meals or being picky about food. If the child's condition is severe during the treatment for obesity, it is essential to take them to a reputable hospital for proper medical care.
