2Poor Weight Gain - Overview
Most children steadily gain weight and grow
quickly within the first few years of life.
However, in some cases, kids do not grow as
expected, which means they do not gain weight
considered normal for their age. Often, these
kids also have poor linear growth
(height). Many factors can cause poor weight
gain, including certain illnesses, inadequate
food intake, food intolerance and eating
disorders. Eating disorders are today a great
concern for kids aged 8-12 years. For example, in
times where something as unhealthy as size
zero is trending, we often come across kids
competing with each other and feeling proud about
how much less they eat and still do not feel
hungry the whole day. As parents, understand that
this is a beginning of an eating disorder, which
can interfere in your childs healthy growth, and
can also cause trouble at puberty, delayed sexual
development, poor memory, anemia, weak bones,
and can also cause difficulty in
concentration. It is therefore important to find
the cause of poor weight gain in children and
treat it before it leads to further
complications. Our doctors find the root cause of
poor weight gain in children and suggest natural
homeopathic medicines that help them achieve
normal weight.
