Your child is lacking nutrients and vitamins.Picky eating in children is seen around the age of one when toddlers show an independence to choose the foods they want to eat. If your child is continuing to refuse the food in this manner, it would be better to get the advice from the experts and feed your child as the way they instructs. http://www.pickyeatersarabia.com/en/experts-advice/ Interesting link remu, but it is basically a sales site for a food supplement, posing as a place for professional advice for worried parents... OP I wish I could offer you some advice or help with your problem in some way, it must be extremely frustrating and anxiety inducing for you to deal with your LO at mealtimes ?

Is she underweight? I'm a health coach with an extremely picky 5 years old. He will not try anything new. His diet is limited to 7 cooked meals in addition to plain pizza, chicken nuggets (I don't offer him those, unless he is around friends eating them) and yoghurts (with no fruit pieces, it should be smooth) He doesn't eat any types of fruits or raw veggies, he doesn't drink milk or juices. he doesn't eat eggs, pastas or sandwiches, he doesn't even eat chocolates, cereals or candies I researched and looked a lot, for my son it is sensory, he only eats stews (with veggies and meat) in tomato sauce served with rice. If a spice he didn't taste before is added to any of his food, he will not eat it. He is picky to an extend of noticing the type of rice he's offered, any small change in his food and it turns into a disaster. He also starves himself, he will not eat even if he's hungry if he is not offered something he's familiar with. He spent 2 school years without touching any food at school even if it's a packed lunch with food he eats at home. But this year he is trying with the limited variety we can send with him to school. We tried school lunches the 1st year, then packed lunch the next year but it didn't work. I make sure he gets enough nutrition by offering him smoothies which are loaded with superfoods, seeds, nuts etc. I also add greens and superfood kids powder to it. I offer his a smoothie twice or 3 times a week. He gets his calcium from plain natural yoghurt. He is very active, he eats well and he rarely gets sick. I tried to look for an occupational therapist who works with food issues but after checking with other mums on international forums regarding this issue and all confirmed that it is a waste of time & money if the issue is sensory But if your child is underweight, rarely eats and it is affecting her general health, you should seek the help of a children nutritionist
