Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
I have read your question in detail and I know that you are very concerned about your child but don't worry.
You should give child following food items
- egg daily
- full cream milk
- butter should be added in every meal.
- pulses, soyabeen should be given more.
- non vegetarian diet should also be given.
If child is reluctant in eating, then an appetizer syrup containing cyproheptadine should be started.
I hope this will help you.
Take care.
