Babies are chubby and very cute, but many young babies in daily life are too overweight. If the weight is severely overweight, it will not only cause various discomforts for the baby, but also have a significant impact on their healthy growth. Let's take a look at the reasons for the baby's obesity.
1. Genetic reasons: In fact, many overweight babies have a family history. If both parents are obese, there is a 70% chance that the baby born will also be obese. If one parent is obese, the likelihood of the baby being obese is approximately 50%. This type of obesity is closely related to environmental and genetic factors, especially the diet and lifestyle habits of parents, which can have a direct impact on infants.
2. Dietary reasons: Most obese infants may have a relationship between overeating and lack of exercise, if they eat too much food every day and eat quickly. However, due to insufficient exercise to burn off excess calories and fat. Therefore, the body will tend to become overweight. Some infants' obesity is caused by simple obesity due to eating too much and exercising too little, but there are also a few infants who suffer from secondary obesity caused by endocrine and genetic diseases.
3. Biased eating: If a baby has a habit of eating a biased diet and only eats sweet foods, over time, the baby may become overweight. Therefore, it is important to avoid giving the baby a biased diet, especially high calorie and overly sweet foods.
