Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Complexion and skin colour are determined genetically.
THey are chromosomal elements that are transmitted from parents to children.
The skin colour of your child will be determined by the genes that are passed to the baby from you and your wife.
If you are darkish and your wife too has a similar complexion, there is no food or drug known to mankind that can make your baby fair.
Asians have a distinctive racial skin colour , and that is why you do not see Europeans amongst us !
Please leave this obsession of having a fair skinned child and pray to God to bless you with a healthy and active child, which in itself, is a blessing !
ANy kind of quack medication or foodstuff is all myth and cannot contribute towards changing the skin colour of your child.
Just let her take the recommended nutritional supplements as prescribed by your doctor.
All the best and take care.
