Problems of malnourished children

Problems of malnourished children - you will learn a lot of interesting things from a famous pediatrician

"Badly eating child" is the problem of almost every second family. There are many reasons for malnutrition and there are many solutions. On child's ingratitude and lack of food TSSU Pediatrician of Zhvania Academic Pediatric Clinic, professor of Tbilisi State Medical University, Karaman Faghava spoke with Mari Malazonia on the "Private Doctor" program.

Rituals during meals - games, computer, cartoons
Habits learned from the day of birth, in most cases, determine the requirements of a person in later stages of life. Children's eating habits are formed at birth, so we should try not to form bad habits from the first day. Parents' examples play a big role. If father or mother reads a newspaper or watches TV during dinner, this
An example is set for the child and he will repeat the same - he will not eat food without rituals, entertainment, watching the computer. It is necessary to change this way of eating. I would like to point out that this rule does not cause any disease, but for digestion and blood circulation it is better to concentrate only on food. Create a pleasant, calm environment. Food should not take the form of duty.

Sweets - the cause of a child's ingratitude.
About 10 years ago, we conducted a survey among Georgian teenagers. We got amazing results, our adults don't eat fruit. Instead, they love yogurt. Do you think fruit or yogurt is more useful? If you still choose yogurt, it should be sugar-free. Chocolate, cake, various sweets are not bad food, but we should also know that all these things are the first enemy of the child. If the child is overweight, sweets should be prohibited altogether. If he is underweight, it is possible to give sweets, but after eating, as an increaser of calories. You can't reward a child to eat food before eating. This kind of trade in relation to eating is not allowed at all. I repeat: fruits, sweets, chocolate are possible only after eating, or even better if they are eaten later. If a parent encourages food instead of eating with products such as chips, popcorn, soda, energy drinks, different types of easily digestible carbohydrates, it means that you are contributing to the process of not eating. Researchers tell us that if there is a bad tradition of late dinner in the family, it turns out that the child refuses to eat until the second half of the day when he wakes up. This is a very harmful habit. At this time, it is necessary to change the diet and rules in the family.

Simple tricks to feed the baby well.
I want to teach you a simple trick, how to use colorful dishes to make the baby's appetite better. Create a beautiful, cheerful environment. Arrange three colored plates in front, say yellow, red, green. Put food of contrasting color on all plates, for example do not put tomatoes on a red plate and carrots on a yellow one. You will see that he will eat more than he used to eat before.
