It is better to give natural foods like egg which is having very high protein and various pulses, especially sprouts that means you soak them in water overnight it and then it will form sprouts then you give it to the child .that would make a good food for her and also give dry fruits. if you provide all these things, no powder available commercially will match but if you cannot do this maybe can compromise with using some powder like pediasure .I feel it is better than others. thank you

After 2 years if child weight is not adequate then you can give more protein. So you can add dry fruits like pista, cashew and almonds powder in milk or you can use protein powder.
Next Steps
consult Pediatrician for further evaluation.

If you take a closer look at the contents of the powders. It contains mostly sugar. I agree with earlier doctors opinion. Concentrate more on natural home organic whole foods.

Consider health drink powder as just flavouring agent.
None can beat home based diet. Try to concentrate more on home food rather than health powders and all.
