How to get rid of obesity in children?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I suggest you a few tips for promoting a healthy lifestyle for your child:

1. Include a variety of fruits and vegetables. Encourage your child to eat a rainbow of fruits and vegetables to ensure they receive a range of nutrients. You can incorporate them into meals, snacks, or even smoothies.

2. Choose whole grains. Opt for whole grains such as whole wheat bread, brown rice, and whole grain cereals instead of refined grains, as they are higher in fiber and provide more nutrients.

3. Limit processed foods and sugary drinks. Minimize the consumption of processed snacks, fast food, sugary beverages, and desserts. These often contain added sugars, unhealthy fats, and excess calories.

4. Focus on lean proteins and lean protein sources like skinless poultry, fish, eggs, legumes, and low-fat dairy products. These help promote growth and provide essential nutrients.

5. Encourage healthy snacks that are nutritious such as sliced fruits, yogurt, raw vegetables with hummus, or nuts instead of chips, cookies, or sugary snacks.

6. Practice portion control and your child about portion sizes and help them understand appropriate serving sizes to avoid overeating.

7. Promote regular physical activity and encourage your child to engage in age-appropriate physical activities they enjoy, such as swimming, biking, dancing, or playing sports. Aim for at least one hour of active play each day.
