There are more and more obese children in China nowadays. According to relevant information, one in ten children in China is overweight. Childhood obesity is caused by two factors. The first is genetic factors, and the second is poor diet control. Some children eat too much, do not exercise enough, and excess nutrition causes fat accumulation. Some children often eat puffed foods, fried foods, etc.

Parents should be fully aware of the problem of childhood obesity, as it can cause many unhealthy problems. Many parents know the dangers of obesity and ask everywhere for ways to help children lose weight, but they don’t know that children’s weight loss should be controlled through diet. Let’s take a look at ways to help children lose weight.

Weight loss methods for children: Dieting is not suitable for children to lose weight, as it will cause insufficient nutritional intake for children, thus affecting their physical health and mental state, and even hindering their development. Adjusting children's diet is the most important way to solve the problem of childhood obesity. A low-calorie, low-fat, low-sugar, high-protein diet can control nutrient intake and ensure the child's growth needs.

Children's weight loss method: Developing good eating and exercise habits from an early age will benefit children for life.

Children's weight loss method: Secondly, increasing calorie consumption by increasing activity is an important measure to prevent obesity. Even in infancy, do not always hold the child in your arms. Instead, help the child turn over and do passive exercises. From May to June, start training the child to automatically jump, sit alone, crawl, walk with support, etc. on the adult's legs. During the early childhood period, children should be allowed to walk, run, jump and play games independently. During school age and adolescence, children should get 30 to 60 minutes of physical activity every day.

Parents should pay attention to the following things when their children are losing weight: add more vegetables and less meat to each meal, buy more fruits and milk and keep them at home. When the children are hungry, they can eat some fruits and vegetables and drink some milk. These things replenish physical strength without increasing calories. Milk can supplement calcium for children's growth and development, and also has a certain weight-loss effect.
