A. weight and chubby child is not the only indicator of good health. if child is active playful, achieving growth milestones, not falling sick frequently, then do not worry. child's rate of growth is also dependent on genetics or how his parents have been in their childhood,. parents body frame. For healthy weight gain, Give nuts like almond, dry fruits. Proteins like eggs, beans, pulses, milk and milk products, chicken. At least 500 ml of full cream milk and milk and milk products like curd, paneer, cheese. All seasonal fruits and vegetables even green leafy vegetables. Avoid fruit juice and instead give the whole fruit. avoid intake of junk and packet foods
