Question

Fussy eater

Asked for Female, 36 Years

My 10 year daughter is a fussy eater. Do not want to eat any healthy food. On a normal days, she eats 1 chapati with sabzi or daal in a meal and 1-2 fruit in a day. In a year, almost 6 months she hardly eats anything. Especially whenever she is having cough or bad throat. She vomits as soon as she eats anything or even medicine too. I had consulted ayurvedic doc too. She is underweight and I am worried about her growth too. Can you please help dealing with her eating habits?

Having cough and vomiting is different. I will suggest to introduce more of green leafy vegetables, egg, fish and fruits as well. Kindly give multivitamin syrup which will improve her appetite. For more details kindly take an appointment for online consultation and to prescribe medicine.
