A. that's betterr growth of the child can be ensured by fulfillment of proper nutritional requirement specially iron and vit D is required for better growth and cognition.you should ensure that the child should get a proper balanced diet which contains all types of micro and macronutrients essential for growth. any kind of infection specially any chronic infection should be ruled out and treated which may hamper the growth otherwise. after 2 years of age you can give some powder like kids pro/ prohance junior mixed with milk twice a day for one or two months but any health drink is not recommended before two yrs of age.u can add flavours also to milk. avoid giving too much of milk otherwise it may hamper the hunger of the baby and the baby may not be taking interest in having other variety of food .and opposite to that if the baby is not taking milk properly the dairy products will be a good substitute like curd, paneer n cheese etc.

A. For overall healthy growth and development, a good balance of all types of foods is important. In 1 year, a baby should take 500-550 ml milk per day including different types of foods made from it like curd, buttermilk, oats with nuts, milkshakes with dry fruits, kheer, dalia, etc. Feed other solid foods too 3 times a day alongwith variety of fluids. #ParentYourWay
