Hello, doctor. My son is 10 years old. Weight is 34 kg and height is 127 cm. He is not at all interested in taking food properly especially no vegetables. It takes almost 1-1.5 hour to complete a meal. Is there anything which can increase his appetite?

Hello ma'am I think the most important thing here could be that he might not like the way food is prepared and its very common for food to be picky at this age. you can make some changes in the way you cook and add more ingredients hidden making it easier for you to convince him to eat food. also talking to him about eating food will types of food he likes would make it easier.
