Question

My two-year-old baby has recently lost interest in eating!

Answer

Hello, based on the information you provided, it appears that your two-year-old may be experiencing picky eating due to a cold, poor Spleen and stomach function, or a zinc deficiency. This could lead to poor acceptance of food, resulting in significant weight loss. It is recommended that you take your child to the pediatric department of the hospital for a check-up and conduct trace element testing. This can be used for treating symptoms such as strengthening the spleen and stomach, and digestion. Consider taking probiotics, oral liquids, and other medications appropriately, and supplementing calcium and zinc reasonably; these measures can be very effective. A combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment methods is worth considering.
