你家小孩是不是很挑食？或突然之间抗拒她本来喜欢吃的食物？做母亲的总是担心孩子吃不够多，吸收不够营养。有的为了让孩子吃下更多，出动藤条和包公脸，把餐桌变了战场。通常小孩不会跟自己的身体过不去，这一餐吃少了，下一餐会多吃补回来，但如果他因挑食、没有胃口而导致体重开始下降，你就必须提高警惕，询问你的家庭医生找出原因，并从日常生活开始纠正孩子的用餐习惯。

以下是六个简单易行的增加你家小孩食欲的方法：



1. 一定要吃早餐

一份健康可口的早餐，可以增加你家小孩的食欲。经过一夜长时间的不进食，小孩的身体需要从食物补充营养，一份营养均衡的早餐可以提高小孩身体的机能，让他们充满能量开始新的一天。

2. 避免味道太浓烈的食物

大部份小孩都不喜欢气味太强烈、太呛的食物。如果你家小孩最近没有食欲，检查看是不是你煮的食物太“重口味”，比如西芹、黄姜、大蒜等等。



3. 用餐前半小时先让小孩喝一杯水

每天早上，小孩在喝奶前必须先喝一杯开水，而且每餐前也必须先喝一杯开水，以增加他们的食欲。不要太靠近用餐时间才喝，最好在餐前半小时，以免喝水太饱，反而弄巧反挫。

4. 给小孩喝酸柑汁

如果你家小孩不肯吃饭，给他们一杯加糖的鲜榨酸柑汁。已有研究证明，酸柑可以提高食欲。



5. 不要给小孩太大份量

少量多餐能提高新陈代谢，同时增进食欲。如果你发现小孩食欲开始下降，先做食物都做成一小口的份量，给他们一些，如果他们想吃会再要，然后逐渐加多。

6. 尝试给小孩吃补助品

失去食欲或挑食而导致体重下降的小孩，长期下去会造成营养不良。你可以谘询家庭医生，协助你家小孩增进食欲。有时候，给小孩吃补剂品也是方法之一。

Has your child turned into Miss Picky overnight? Is she now refusing to eat foods that used to be her favorites? Are you worried that her sudden loss of appetite may indicate a serious health condition?

The poor appetite of their kids is a common complaint among mothers. Some may be finicky eaters who convert the dining table into a battleground. In most of the cases, kids make up for their poor diet by eating more at the next meal. However, if weight loss accompanies the loss of appetite, then you must consult a pediatrician to identify the cause & correct it.



Here are 5 suggestions for boosting a healthy appetite in your little one:


1. Compulsory breakfast

Eating a good, healthy breakfast is bound to increase your child’s appetite. A balanced breakfast boosts metabolism after the night ‘fast’ and gets the body working for the day.

2. Avoid pungent or strong food

Most children don’t enjoy extreme odours or overpowering tastes. If low appetite is an issue with your child, check if your kitchen has food odours and/or if your food has strong taste of Indian masalas, garlic, and so on. Eliminate these flavours. Chances are that your child will start gaining an appetite.


3. Offer water 30 minutes before meal time

Children should have water first thing in the morning, even before milk. Also, they should have water half an hour before meals to improve their appetite. These basics help a lot!

4. Offer fresh lime juice

When your child fusses over food and says that he/she is not hungry, offer sweetened fresh lime juice, instead of water. Lime improves digestion and appetite.


5. Offer small bites

Small bites of food build metabolism, which in-turn, improves appetite. Offer smaller bites of food to your children if you think they have reduced appetite. Slowly, their want for food will increase. You should continue offering small bites till they start eating on their own and decide on their bite-size themselves.


6. Try give your children supplements

Poor appetite or picky eating habits is at risk of low energy and illness. Your child's doctor can help you determine whether she needs to gain weight. Aim to supplement your child's diet with whole foods as much as possible, but in some cases a commercial supplement may be necessary.
