Question
My baby doesn’t like to eat complementary foods and also seems listless. How should I treat this?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby may not be eating complementary foods due to weak spleen and stomach. It is recommended to take traditional Chinese medicine ‘Xingpi Yang’er Granules’ to regulate the spleen and stomach, and pay attention to providing easily digestible and absorbable foods. Additionally, appropriate physical exercise can help strengthen the baby’s constitution. Moreover, zinc deficiency and indigestion may also cause similar symptoms, so consider supplementing gluconate zinc and adjusting dietary habits. You can also try giving the baby ‘Shanmai Jianpi Oral Liquid’ or ‘Four Flavor Spleen and Stomach Relaxing Granules’ to improve digestion.
