POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 7 m old boy2 years agoA. Vitamin A is essential for a child's growth and development. Here's how you can provide it to a 1-year-old Indian child: 1. **Diet:** Include foods rich in vitamin A in their diet. Good sources include carrots, sweet potatoes, mangoes, papayas, and green leafy vegetables like spinach. 2. **Dairy:** Whole milk and dairy products like cheese and yogurt also contain vitamin A. 3. **Eggs:** Eggs are a good source of vitamin A. Make sure they are cooked thoroughly for a child's safety. 4. **Fortified Foods:** Some commercially available cereals and baby foods are fortified with vitamin A. Check labels for information. 5. **Breast Milk:** If your child is still breastfeeding, breast milk provides essential nutrients, including vitamin A. 6. **Supplements:** In some cases, a pediatrician may recommend vitamin A supplements if there's a deficiency or specific dietary concerns. Always follow the doctor's guidance regarding dosage. Remember that it's important to provide a balanced diet and avoid excessive vitamin A intake, which can be harmful. It's a good practice to consult with your pediatrician or a pediatric nutritionist for specific dietary recommendations for your child's age and needs.
