When seeing a white and fat child, many parents' first reaction is "Wow! How cute!" They think that the baby is chubby because of its good health, so parents often ignore this problem in their daily life and feed their baby like a small Rice-meat dumplings, so they can't help but want to take a bite. However, being chubby does not necessarily mean good health, it can also lead to obesity in babies.

3. Obesity can also cause heart and lung dysfunction, as well as abnormal sexual development.
4. The accumulation of fat in the chest and abdomen of babies can easily lead to diseases such as hyperlipidemia, poor lung ventilation, weakened heart function, fatty liver, and arthritis.
5. Excessive obesity in babies can also slow down their physical response, reduce their ability to respond to various stresses, and make them more prone to various injuries, car accidents, and other accidents.
6. If the baby's brain tissue contains too much fat, it is easy to form an "obese brain". Obese brain has slow thinking and poor memory, which can seriously affect a baby's intelligence.
