Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Good Growth of the child is very important and for this most important is that child should take a healthy diet where its necessary to give a balance diet which should contain all the nutrition required. This is very important for building the immunity also.
Encourage for green vegetables fruits dairy products all kinds of dal and other protein containing food items like soyabean eggs etc.
Some nutritional deficiencies can be a cause for less appetite like iron deficiency which is most common.
Supplements like iron supplements and multivitamin with lysine gtklike syp zincovit CL can be given for 1-2 months to increase the appetite.
Diet counselling is also very important .

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. It's common for toddlers to eat only very small amounts, to be fussy about what they eat, and to refuse to eat at all. There are a few reasons for this: Toddler appetites vary constantly because of growth spurts and variations in activity. Toddlers aren't growing as fast as babies, so they need less food.
