What should children with picky eating eat to supplement?

Patient's question:

My child is four years old. The child has severe picky eating and is also quite thin. I want to help regulate his diet. What should children with picky eating eat to supplement?

Doctor's answer:

The nutrients our bodies need are obtained from food. Picky eating in children has a significant impact on health. Picky and selective eating in babies can lead to a deficiency in trace elements such as calcium, iron, and zinc. Conversely, a lack of these trace elements can also contribute to picky or selective eating in babies, as well as potential issues with their spleen and stomach function. You can give your child Compound Pancreatin Powder and Lysine Gluconate Granules to regulate the spleen and stomach, increase appetite, and adjust the diet in a timely manner. Pay attention to a balanced combination of coarse and fine foods, as well as a mix of meat and vegetables. Ensure adequate protein and vitamins. Try to eat more lean meat, fish, shrimp, eggs, milk, and fresh fruits and vegetables. If there is anemia, take medication under the guidance of a doctor to actively correct it.
