After a child is born, the biggest fear for parents is that they may have dietary problems. If they can eat enough, even the worst child can grow slowly. However, if they have anorexia, it will be difficult for them to develop normally. So, will a baby's zinc deficiency cause anorexia?
Zinc, as an important element required by the human body, plays a crucial role in the growth of children. Zinc deficiency in babies may not necessarily cause anorexia, but most cases of anorexia are due to zinc deficiency. So parents should conduct a comprehensive examination of their children to confirm whether there is a deficiency of trace elements in their bodies, to ensure that their children are not experiencing anorexia due to zinc deficiency or other substances.
If good eating habits are not developed for children during infancy, they may also experience anorexia, such as a large deviation in the frequency of eating per day, or the child always overeating. The mother's diet is spicy, which can cause discomfort in the baby. If left untreated for a long time, the baby will naturally become resistant to food and even unwilling to drink milk in the future.
Parents not only need to breastfeed their children, but also pay attention to their mental condition. If the baby's digestion has become abnormal, do not force them to eat at this time, which may lead to more serious diarrhea or constipation. At this time, the child should be fed some water first, and the diet should be light, mainly Congee and soup, so that the child can have the desire to eat.
