A. your child is 5 years old with 20 kgs of weight for the weight of the child is good and 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 balanced diet which contains all types of nutrients 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 mix in milk twice a day for one or two months.

A. Ur Child has an appropriate weight according to the age of your child so I don’t think so you need to worry about anything whatever you are giving is good enough for the child for healthy weight when your child is 20 KG that’s a very good weight for a five-year-old child
