Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. for good Growth of the child it is important that the child should get proper nutritional requirement which is very important for the growing child specially iron and vitamin D is required for better growth and cognition . also there is role of other micronutrients.
one should ensure that the child should get a proper balavunced diet which contains all types of nutrients essential for ghrowth.
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 mix in milk twice a day for one or two months.

Give healthy and nutritious diet including all the food groups for proper growth and development.
Include food rich in protein like egg chicken meat fish soya tofu lentils black chana sprouts etc, food rich in calcium like milk and milk products, fruits like banana ,dry fruits etc in diet for height increase.
Indulge in some physical activity like hanging stretching basket ball swimming etc for height increase
