A. To support healthy growth in an Indian toddler, it's essential to provide a balanced diet that includes a variety of nutrient-rich foods. Here are some foods that can contribute to healthy height and weight gain: 1. **Dairy Products:** Full-fat milk, yogurt, and paneer (cottage cheese) provide calcium and other essential nutrients for bone development. 2. **Protein-Rich Foods:** Lentils (dal), chickpeas (chana), eggs, and lean meats like chicken and fish are good sources of protein necessary for muscle development. 3. **Whole Grains:** Include whole grains like brown rice, whole wheat, oats, and quinoa. These provide energy, fiber, and a range of nutrients. 4. **Healthy Fats:** Avocado, nuts (almonds, walnuts), and seeds (flaxseeds, chia seeds) contain healthy fats important for overall growth. 5. **Vegetables and Fruits:** A colorful variety of vegetables and fruits provide essential vitamins and minerals. Dark, leafy greens are particularly beneficial. 6. **Ghee (Clarified Butter):** Small amounts of ghee in meals can contribute to healthy fat intake. 7. **Bananas:** Rich in potassium, bananas can be a nutritious and energy-dense snack. 8. **Sweet Potatoes:** High in vitamins and fiber, sweet potatoes are a good addition to the diet. 9. **Homemade Nut Butters:** Almond or peanut butter can be spread on whole grain bread or used in dips. 10. **Homemade Snacks:** Prepare nutrient-rich snacks like poha, upma, or vegetable parathas using whole ingredients. Always consult with your pediatrician for personalized advice based on your toddler's specific health and dietary needs. A balanced and diverse diet, along with regular check-ups, is key to supporting healthy growth.
