Question
What types of food should be given to a baby who doesn’t like to drink formula milk? Is medical treatment necessary? How long can improvement be expected after treatment?
Answer
If a baby dislikes formula milk, you can try offering some nutritious baby finger foods. For example, vegetable liver puree: mix 1 teaspoon of finely chopped cooked carrots with 1/2 teaspoon of spinach leaves (boiled with a little salt and chopped), along with 2 teaspoons of chopped liver, and add 1 teaspoon of soy sauce. Simmer over low heat until almost off the heat, then add 1 tablespoon of milk. Banana porridge is also a good option: peel off 1/6 of a banana and mash it with the back of a spoon, mix with 1 tablespoon of milk, bring to a boil, stir evenly, and add a little honey if desired. Tomato liver is another choice: cook 2 teaspoons of chopped liver with 1 teaspoon of chopped onion together, add meat broth or rice broth, then add 2 teaspoons of peeled and chopped tomatoes and a little salt. Whether medical treatment is necessary and how long improvement can be expected after treatment,
