A. Only your doctor can suggested zinc or vitamin syrup to increase her appetite. Give foods rich in iron, zinc and vitamins. Split up 3 big meals into 5-6 small meals. Serve Vitamin B rich fortified foods and whole grain products enriched with iron, folic acid and other nutrients. Offer colourful and attractive dishes like beetroot halwa, gajar halwa, stuffed parantha with carrot, capsicum and cabbage. You can offer vegetable stuffed pancakes. Avoid force feeding. Offer small portions of food and give more only when she asks. Allow her to help with cooking and she would automatically start taking interest in food. Avoid distractions during meal times like TV, mobile phones, laptops or tablets. Arrange the food so that it is visually appealing to your kid. Make her drink water 30 mins before mealtime.
