hello doctor i have 11 months baby boy. Now a days we had problem with his diet. His intake food was very low as previous.He hates to take food and prefer only lactogen milk that also very low content.One of my family doctor prefer "cypon syrup". Is this adviceable? please help me in this regards........
Hi... At his age interest in play increases and interest in food decreases. This is quite natural. If he is active and playing around you need not worry. This age rather than the quantity of the food I suggest you concentrate more on the number of times you feed him and also make whatever you feed him calorie dense by adding good amount of ghee to it. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE ANY SO-CALLED APPETITE STIMULANTS LIKE CAPON AS THEY ARE NOT VERY SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN AND THEY HAVE THE SIDE EFFECT OF EXCESSIVE Chat Doctor. Hope my answer was helpful for you.  I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Chat Doctor are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
