Question

How can I solve the problem of my baby not liking to eat? My baby has started on complementary foods, but has always had poor appetite, especially during dinner time. Although not many snacks are consumed, neither rewards nor punishment methods have been effective. The baby might only eat one or two meals a day, with a small appetite. This is very concerning to me. Besides calcium deficiency, the results of the trace element test are normal, and the baby’s mental state is good, but the height is slightly lower. Since birth, the baby’s dinner issue has not improved. What kind of help do we need? Our family has tried various appetizing medications, but they have not been effective. What should we do?

Answer

For a two-year-old child who does not like to eat, this may be a manifestation of poor digestive system function and weakened spleen and stomach, and requires treatment. It is recommended to takeJianpi San granules appropriately to improve the condition. Additionally, diversify complementary foods and try to consume calcium and zinc supplements for two weeks, while frequently taking the child outdoors to aid in digestion and absorption.
