What to do with childhood obesity?

At present, more and more obese children are becoming obese. Most of the fat children are formed because of uncontrolled diet, eating too many sweets, greasy, salty, high-calorie, high-fat, and smoked foods. Parents must not blindly choose weight loss methods for their children, and choose weight loss methods according to the reasons for their children’s obesity. For obese children with an over-nutrient diet, the general way to lose weight is to control the amount of diet plus exercise to control weight gain. In terms of diet, some children are obese caused of poor eating habits, such as skipping breakfast, eating rich dinners and eating midnight snacks, eating while playing, and eating snacks before meals.

First of all, you can't lose weight blindly, which means you must first determine whether your child is really obese. Only more than 20% of the standard height and weight is considered fat, and more than 50% are severely obese, and it is necessary to lose weight.

Secondly, after determining obesity, we must understand the causes of obesity. Only simple obesity can lose weight by weight loss, while pathological obesity can only be treated by treating the disease. Then, according to the cause of obesity, targeted weight loss methods can be more effective.

Finally, a long-term weight loss plan was developed for the child, because simple obesity weight loss is a long-term chronic process, and it cannot be achieved in a short period of time. Only by persisting and going step by step can the ultimate goal be achieved.

In the process of weight loss for children, parents must not blindly do it. To obtain quick results, give children weight-loss pills, or drink weight-loss tea. These are forbidden after the meeting because children are in the growth and development period and eat these to lose weight. The product will bring harm to the child's body, such as anorexia, increased blood pressure, abnormal thinking, and even affect the child's growth and development and intelligence.

Children must get rid of these bad habits of losing weight. They must also develop the habit of exercising every day. Exercise no less than 20 minutes a day. Choose aerobic exercises, such as swimming, jogging, and skipping rope.
