When children get really obese, they will probably face metabolic syndrome. This is a common health problem facing many families nowadays.

Childhood obesity can be a sign of serious health disorders in the future. In fact, children who stay obese even as adults have a large risk of facing medical issues.

For instance, they may struggle with heart disease, high blood pressure (hypertension). In addition to type 2 diabetes due to the high blood sugar level and insulin resistance, the body will not respond correctly to insulin.

Therefore, early detection and therapy can be life-changing for children with metabolic syndrome.

Dr Olfa tests kids for pediatric metabolic disease and also follows up with obese children until full recovery is achieved.

The earlier you detect a problem the less it affects your child. Keep them healthy and happy in their childhood for a better future.
