Question
Some parents have reported that their children are now picky eaters and selective, often suffering from upper respiratory infections, sometimes requiring intravenous drips once or even multiple times a month. The parents have heard that vaccination with BCG or gamma globulin can enhance immunity and want to know if this is feasible.
Answer
Hello, it is recommended to encourage children to participate in sports activities to strengthen their physique. The arrangement of the child’s diet is the responsibility of the parents, who should pay special attention to exposing older children to a wider variety of foods, expanding their dietary range, so that they can accept various types of food. Every food has its unique advantages and disadvantages, and only by consuming a variety of foods can one meet the body’s comprehensive nutritional needs. Many children prefer sweets and snacks rather than vegetables and legumes, while some do not like to eat meat. Such dietary habits may lead to long-term nutritional imbalances in children, affecting their normal development. Therefore, cultivating a non-picky, non-selective eating habit in children is crucial. Parents should set a good dietary example for their children.
