♻️ Weight gain of young children causes health problems. As a result of this, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders and increased blood sugar levels occur. There are several reasons for the development of obesity in children of early age.
🔸 First of all, if the father or mother is overweight in the family, the children are also prone to obesity.
🔸 Secondly, irregular and often forced feeding of a child from infancy leads to obesity later.
🔸 Thirdly, the physiological volume of a child's stomach is 200-250 ml. and after he eats such a quantity of food, he feels satiated. If from childhood he was fed poorly, the child learns to eat more food than his stomach requires and begins to gain weight.
🔸 Fourthly, at present, children are inactive from birth until they walk independently, that is, they are always carried by adults in strollers, in return, they have the opportunity to gain weight.
🔰 So, obesity of a baby is dangerous for health. Because fat accumulates in the body of a fat baby. After that, there is a decrease in immunity, intolerance to external influences, defects in body condition. In addition, obese children become very lazy, due to lack of movement, blood circulation in the body deteriorates, and problems related to daily life occur.
⚠️ Mothers should not forget that if their child's weight exceeds the norm, they must take necessary measures.
Recommendations for the care of "bumps":
