Patient's question:
A friend's child is only 9 years old but weighs over 100 pounds. They are very greedy and have a thick layer of fat on their body. They walk very slowly, and if they don't get food, they will cry.Doctor's answer:
This is overweight, and diet must be controlled. Desserts, snacks, and drinks should not be consumed in excess. Be indulgent rarely, after all, they are still children. Eat less red meat (such as pork, beef, and lamb). Eat more white meat (such as chicken and fish). Eat more green vegetables. Rice should also be consumed in moderation. If hungry between meals, eat some fruit—apples are the best choice. Alternatively, you can cook some vegetarian noodles with milk for them. It's just vegetarian noodles, no additions. The most important thing is to guide and encourage children to exercise more, run, play ball, and swim! It's best to learn swimming in the summer now. You will lose weight quickly. Children should never be overweight, as it is too harmful to their developing bodies.
