The fattest child in the world - cute or just scary? The Guinness Book of Records collection has replenished with another heavyweight representative. 60 kilograms in three
years weighs the largest child in the world! While the average baby by this age is gaining 14-16 kg, the record holder managed to get ahead of his peers four times.
The fattest child in the world was born not somewhere, but in China. At birth, he did not surprise anyone with his modest 2.6 kilograms. This is the normal weight for a newborn. But after only three months, little Lu Hao, that’s the name of the boy, began to rapidly grow heavier. The fact is, as the parents say, that the baby screams, is capricious and does not calm down until he is fed. Therefore, they did not come up with anything better than giving him food in unlimited quantities, if only he would not cry. And as a result of such a peculiar "farmer" from a child, a three-year-old boy weighs like an adult ordinary man in China. Only during lunch time, the thickest child in the world eats more parents: three full-weight bowls of rice. This is told by his father, Lu Yucheng, who can hardly raise his son. And his mother, Chen Yuan, is completely deprived of the opportunity to shake her beloved child in her arms. Over the past year, Lu Hao gained ten more kilograms. Parents are trying to accustom the baby to a healthy diet, watching
diet and limit it to food, but they are still not doing well. The world's fattest child from China has retained its dubious title so far. What will happen next is still unknown.
Of course, the fattest child in the world has difficulty moving. It is hard for him to walk, because of the heavy weight he suffers from severe shortness of breath. Lu Hao is taken on a motorcycle with a stroller for walks and kindergarten. Father and mother are trying to accustom the boy to outdoor games. But he is not interested in playing basketball, and aerobics and swimming in the river do not bring visible results. Parents have spent a lot of time and effort
for consultations and examinations of doctors. But even Chinese doctors, despite their centuries of experience, did not come to a consensus about such a “healthy” child’s appetite and rapid weight gain. They suggest that the cause of obesity is hormonal abnormalities, but there is no exact diagnosis yet.
The story of Lu Hao is very similar to the case in the United States. The American girl Jessica Leonard weighed 222 kilograms by the age of seven. TV shows about Jessica at one time caused a great resonance around the world. The result of such a public response was a clinic in which the girl spent a year and a half. During this time, with the help of physical exercises and a strict diet, she lost 140 kilograms and continues to lose weight. She has yet to undergo a series of operations on her joints and to remove excess skin. However, the problem of obesity in the United States is now very acute, and the case with Jessica was the first sign.
And while the fattest child in the world is steadily gaining extra pounds, his parents look with fear into the future, worrying about the life of their son. One can only hope that this story will also have a happy ending, and Lu Hao will someday begin to lose weight. But, of course, without the influence of parents, it will be almost impossible to do.
