Address Your Child’s Eating Problems
Avoid gluten-free diets
Does gluten cause Autism? In our experience, the answer is NO.
Is your child allergic to gluten? Allergic reactions include rashes, fever, and swelling. Does your child experience rashes, fever, or swelling after eating gluten food like bread and noodles? If not, your child is not allergic to gluten.
Your child may already have severe diet restrictions. And you may be already overwhelmed and exhausted from caring for your child. So why do you want to further restrict your child’s diet with gluten-free food? Why do you want to spend a lot more time, money, and effort to keep your child’s diet always gluten-free?
Make Your Child Eat Meals
Does your child like food with strong flavors? Then why not make your dishes with strong flavors so that your child will eat more? Use more salt, oil, herbs, and spices in your dishes. Try some easy and tasty recipes.
Cook early, so that your child does not need to dig into snacks before meals.
Make Your child eat vegetables
Choose vegetables that taste better, for example, carrots, cucumbers, spinach, leafy lettuce, onions, and mushrooms.
Eat vegetables raw if possible. Use salad dressing and dips to add more flavors.
When your child grows older, he/she may eat more vegetables naturally.
Make Your Child Eat Meat
A moderate amount of meat can help your child grow muscles, maintain skin, and develop digestive and immune systems. Meat can be 5% – 10% of a daily diet, depending on your child’s current body conditions. For example, if your child is skinny, meat can be 10% of his/her diet.
