2 separate cases... Please advise for both separately..... 1) My niece is almost 4. Weight 20 kg. Very healthy MA, take regular three meals, aik roti in each meal, plus school lunch is also eaten, a healthy one. plus a regular supply of junk item like bunties, gums, candies, cakes, brownies. Sham ki chai m bhi usy biscuits ya kuch aur zaroor dety hn. Nido 3+milk, yougarts is also in everyday diet. Now the question is she usually eat 3, 4 eggs in a day, is it fine? Is ka koi problem to nah ho ga.
2) the other niece is 2.5. She does no eat anything at all. Kuch din tw aisy hoty hn k whole she goes on milk only, and there come 2, 3 days in which she starts eating roti, but she dnt agree to eat anything, what's so ever choice she's given. What can be done improve her appetite and hunger. Her doc suggested no medicine for hunger. She's so weak that she prefers k koi usy uthai rakhy, rather then k wo khud chaly.
Dear client, its good if quantity of egg 2 to 3 egg daily...please dont exceed because she take protein from other sources like yougurt ....but the main area of concern.....the development of her eating habits that proceeds most of time with same pattern of eating in other stages of life...child nutrition is change according to development stages.for your other niece place take appointment, i want to take her detailed history.
Excess of everything is bad.

For elder one, I would recommend 1-2 eggs per day and 1 kabab/ meat peice (mutton/ fish/chicken). Also she is going towards obesity. For the younger one, you should take her to a peads doctor for polyps.
*Important Note*
1)Don't give your children any junk food(jellies, packaged chips, fizzy drinks, chocolates, toffees etc.) or processed food (K&N etc. Kababs, nuggets,temporas etc.). They are very bad for proper growth and development of children as they contain a number of harmful chemicals.
2) Avoid giving formula milk or other packaged milk if FRESH MILK IS BEING TOLERATED by your child because fresh milk is the BEST source of all the nutrients for a child.

In case one, childhood obesity is not good as it can cause other health concerns. Her intake should be moderate as excess can lead to obesity.
In second case, try to make food attractive for her and try that she eats when everyone around is also eating on the same table.
you can book an appointment with me for their diet plans
