Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. Sometimes kids don't want to drink milk. Don't force them. Having 2 eggs in a day is equivalent to drinking 1 L of milk, it gives same nutrition. So you may vary well offer your child one egg per day safely. Also go through my article.--- "Are You Giving Your Child the Nutrition He Needs?" by Dr. Poonam.M.
