One year old children develop faster, so many parents will find ways to supplement their children's nutrition. Some children do not like to eat at this stage, and parents are particularly worried about affecting their children's development, which can be a headache for them. So what's wrong with a one year old child not liking to eat?
A one year old child's lack of appetite may be caused by unhealthy eating habits, such as giving the child too many snacks or drinking too much milk powder, which can cause the child to feel full all the time, leading to a loss of appetite during mealtime.
It is also possible that the child's gastrointestinal abnormalities, such as gastritis, enteritis, etc., can cause a decrease in appetite and a lack of appetite. It is recommended to take the child to the gastroenterology department of the hospital for a detailed examination. If it is found to be caused by a disease, active treatment should be given to avoid affecting the child's physical health.
If it is not caused by illness that children do not like to eat, parents should adjust their children's daily diet. In order to enhance children's appetite, they should choose a variety of foods, preferably alternating between thick and thin staple foods, and combining meat and vegetables reasonably. When cooking, be light and avoid adding too many seasonings. Usually, you can cook some porridge, soup, noodles and other food for children to eat, which can not only supplement nutrition, but also help digestion and absorption of the stomach.
Additionally, parents should pay attention to food hygiene and wash thoroughly before cooking. Especially fruits, they should be thoroughly washed two or three times before feeding to children to avoid pesticide residues. Parents should also remind their children to wash their hands before eating to prevent bacteria from entering their bodies through eating.
