A. weight is good. you can start supplements like iron calcium and multivitamin regularly and protein powder with milk twice a day as diet alone can't meet nutritional requirements of a growing child

A. So if your child is really fond of eating and is eating jolly well as for the age then I will tell you two things first of all increase the amount of proteins into your child’s daily diet that’s going to be really very beneficial for the child and secondly I would recommend you to start with an iron supplement along with that just go ahead with giving multivitamin to the child at least for 3 to 6 monthsWrite Your Answer Here
