How to deal with 20 pounds of overweight in children?

Patient's question:

A 8-year-old boy is overweight by 20 pounds. He is generally inactive and does not like to eat vegetables or fruits. His appetite is not very large. How can we help him lose weight? Can drinking a small amount of lotus leaf tea help him change his eating habits?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this should be comprehensively judged based on the baby's specific weight. Usually, eat less fat and greasy food. Additionally, you must participate in more physical exercise. Only by reducing food intake can you lose weight. Additionally, you can go to the hospital's endocrinology department to check hormone levels and whether blood lipids and blood sugar are affected. The methods you mentioned will not be very effective.
