Question

What are the reasons for children not eating?

Answer

It’s advisable to check for trace elements at the hospital. If the baby is deficient in zinc, their appetite may decrease. Zinc deficiency not only affects appetite but can also lead to malnutrition and weakened immunity. Additionally, it’s important to avoid excessive intake of monosodium glutamate and chicken essence, as these ingredients may cause zinc deficiency. At the same time, controlling snacks can promote healthy eating habits in children.
