<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> How can we say our children are obese?</h3> Our Child pediatrician is a person who can decide whether our kids are maintaining healthy weight or they are overweight or <b><a href="http://blog.homeocare.in/how-to-overcome-obesity-in-children-with-homeopathy.html" title="obese"><span style="color: #073763;">obese</span></a></b>. In order to check whether our child is overweight or not our pediatrician measures our child’s height and weight to calculate their BMI (body mass index). BMI is calculated by dividing weight in kg by height in meters and compares the results with the basic standard values. Pediatrician also considers child’s age and growth scale to determine your child is obese or not. <br /> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> Helping an overweight child</h3> If your child is <a href="http://www.homeocares.com/treatments/obesity/" title="overweight"><span style="color: #073763;"><b>overweight</b></span></a>, showing them your support and letting them know it is very important. Most importantly children’s feelings about themselves mainly depends on parents feelings about them. If parents support them against their height and weight, they feel comfortable and self confident. It is our parent’s duty to talk to them regarding their weight and sharing their worries and concerns. Keeping their children away because of their weight is not at all suggestible. Parents should focus mainly on changing the routines like eating habits and physical activities to help their kids. We can teach healthy habits to our kids and make them feel comfortable, not pointed out by changing family habits.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjx14rlvjkDzPHQBTx7b3F09w179vG41I5GpI8AvOKnumDB0f-KEVur3uq1gm-ZpvU88u4QrktnZM2rSmcAd-SzBkEznVMGW_T3YmP_leYBh1Np-Ln2z1pyu1SdQkQSBqO4Ob5xSUNbNlA/s1600/Obesity+Treatment+in+Homeopathy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="Obesity Treatment in Homeopathy"><img border="0" data-original-height="1055" data-original-width="1600" height="420" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjx14rlvjkDzPHQBTx7b3F09w179vG41I5GpI8AvOKnumDB0f-KEVur3uq1gm-ZpvU88u4QrktnZM2rSmcAd-SzBkEznVMGW_T3YmP_leYBh1Np-Ln2z1pyu1SdQkQSBqO4Ob5xSUNbNlA/s640/Obesity+Treatment+in+Homeopathy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> <br /> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> Tips to involve whole family in healthy habits</h3> Involving the entire family in healthy habits is a big task.
