My daughter is 8 year old and has a very slow weight gain. When she was born, she was only 2.5 kg, then the pead suggested simyl mct, after using she gained weight. Then I had to stop it. Now again she has very slow weight gain rate, can I again start with small mct, or is there any other alternative. She is very skinny.
