What should be done about childhood obesity?

Patient's question:

Born in October 2011, currently 117 cm tall and weighing 35 kg. Is this physical condition okay? Will it already be considered over? What should be done?

Doctor's answer:

According to the information provided, the occurrence of this situation is closely related to improper daily feeding. It is recommended to adjust the dietary structure, control energy intake, and improve it as the child grows and develops. It is advised to avoid consuming greasy, fried, high-sugar, and high-salt foods, and to avoid additional energy intake. Do not feed soups such as meat broth, rib broth, or chicken broth. Pay attention to developing the habit of eating whole grains as staple foods, vegetables, fruits, and yogurt to supplement dietary fiber and control appetite.
