Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.

I think your grand child is consuming some of the good things every child should be encouraged to consume. Among them are milk and veggies. Encourage for the good things he does. Do not be worried if he is not having sweeties or soda drinks. They are not good any way. A physical examination may identify if he having any anemia or if he is normal in his weight for his age. If every thing is normal then there is no reason for worry.

Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
