 creates psychological stress on children. Obesity treatment for children is not easy, so parents need to immediately adjust their diet if they show signs of obesity.
Firstly
, children's diet consist of junk food,
such
 as potato chips and candy, which is not only low in nutrients but
also
 high in calories. In fact, that these kinds of food are often marketed directly at children with fun cartoon mascots and brights colours that are designed to attract children's attention. Another undeniable reason is a sedentary lifestyle. Much of their time is spent sitting in front of a screen, whether it be television, a computer, or a smartphone.

such
 as do exercise, aerobic club, dancing, etc.. Adjust your diet by eating more vegetables, taking vitamins, healthy food. As for their parents, their responsibilities are even more important. Parents need to play a greater role in controlling what their children eat. Remind your child, give them advice on managing their weight. In conclusion, the rise in a number of obese children is certainly worrying, especially children are very vulnerable on
this
 issue.
However

next
 generation grows up healthy and strong.
