Hello there!

If you child only eats a small bowl of serving, a tablespoon of minced meat and fish along with a tablespoon of vegetables each meal, it is much lacking compared to the standards. Your kid needs twice the amount you mentioned; moreover, you also have to add 10 ml of oil into each meal. If your child doesn’t eat much in one meal, increase the number of meals. You should not prolong his meal for too long; if your child eats in more than 30 minutes without wanting to eat anymore, you should replace the dish with another, or give your child a complementary meal to compensate for the loss. Anorexia is a long-term problem for your child, so check with your pediatrician or dietitian to find out what causes anorexia to help your child overcome it! Sincere greetings to you!
