Question
How can I improve the dietary habits of a 3-year-5-month-old boy to address iron and zinc deficiencies?
Answer
For a 3-year-5-month-old boy, loss of appetite may be caused by iron and zinc deficiencies. It is recommended to provide the child with easily digestible foods and ensure a diverse diet, avoiding a lack of meat. You can give the child zinc gluconate and ferrous sulfate oral solution, while also paying attention to the child’s digestion and increasing the intake of spinach, eggs, and animal liver in daily life.
