ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist2 years agoA. dear mum, being lean is not a problem for your 5 years old son. if your son is active, playful, achieving all growth milestones, weight is within the normal range for your son's age then you should not worry.
For healthy weight gain, give homemade balanced diet having variety of food groups.
grains and millets 4 servings
pulses legumes/egg non veg: 1-2 servings
seasonal vegetables including green leafy vegetables: 1.5 serving
fruits - 1 serving
milk and milk products 500ml
sugar 4 tsp
oil 5 tsp
control intake of processed and packaged foods.
