Since the disease is considered as one of the World Health Organization (WHO), the problem of obesity is no longer a problem in adults but also children. No kidding, the data from the Health Research (Rikesdas) in 2010 showed that 19, 6 percent of children in Jakarta alone has been in the category of overweight or obesity.

Food sources is an important concern to note in this regard is milk. Quite alarming, because a lot of kids really like to drink milk. Maybe it's a lot of literature that describes the amount of feed restriction in children. But if milk, what the right dose for a child consumed on a daily basis?


Nutrition expert Dr. dr. Samuel Oetoro, MS, SpGK said, portions of drinking milk every day in children up to 2 cups. Do not overdo it. Unless the child is underweight, the limit allowed to drink 3 glasses of milk per day.

"A maximum of two glasses. Never overload. I ask all the people who take care of children, including nurses, aides to supervise the consumption side of the child so that the child is not obese," he said, as quoted on Thursday (10/07/2014).

"I had a patient, aged 9 years. Weight 65 kilograms. Mamamya He came together. Alright then, I set her eating, I say, yes a week longer control. Targets me when it can reduce the severity of up to half a kilogram," he said.

But what is happening. A week later, the boy came back with mom and omanya. And instead of weighing down even increased.

"Her mother is proud of the story, yesterday my son eating goat soup dock, finished one bowl. Soon as he said. Yet again, by restricting food, omanya not have the heart and in the back of the mother, she always gives food. I wonder and say, ma'am, if you do not support, children can gain weight and have a lot of disease risk, "said Samuel.

Samuel added, greatly influenced the eating habits of children environment. "If at home, children are not taught to eat properly, children will participate. Rather, it is how our parents' children. Compact if his parents, then he will be obedient to restrict his eating."
