A. hi stop force feed and dont ask for food, let the baby be little hungry before meals, let him come and ask for food then give one pot meals like paneer parathas, mix vegetable dal khichdi egg or chicken or chole rice milkshakes lassi avoid in between snacks of chocolates chips biscuits

A. Ma’am Kids a good eater by choice only if they like the food that they are eating and also if they are basically interested in eating food since you said that your child is not interested so you will first have to develop the interest of your child by showing how much You are enjoying the food and by looking at you maybe your child will learn it

Q. #asktheexpert Hello my son is not having any of the meals breakfast,lunch or dinner with interest. He has to be force fed every meal though there is variety each day. Previously he used to have his favourite food with interest such as paneer, bhindi, beans but he seems to have lost interest in those too. Also no spices he can digest so his food is separate . He eats only fruits, chocolate, cake, chips with interest. Also each meal he takes more than an hour to finish. He is active anyway. Pls suggest how to to improve his food habits
