2.3 Year Old Son, Not Having Healthy Food, Having Plain Rice, Milk, Sweet Food, Having Cold Frequently. Advice?

My son is 2.3 years old and he is a picky eater. He doesn't eat anything healthy that i give him. He just eats plain white rice with ghee and drinks milks. Nothing else. Anything which is sweet he likes it, otherwise a big NO. He often catches cold atleast once month and am very much worried about his health and his imunity. kindly advice.

Hi Dear
welcome to the platform of Health care Magic
Cold can occur six to 12 times in a year.and this frequency is considered to be normal.
But still your child should get balanced diet. better you add little protein in his diet, it will make the diet of your child near to balanced.
We should try to feed our child with love,giving frequent small feeds diverting his mind, giving example of other friends/developing competition.
Hope your query is answered,
Thanks
