My 6yo daughter is a very fuzzy and extremely slow eater. She dont want to try anything. She ask for something and dont eat it when given. She is suffering from calcium and vitamin D3 deficiency and is taking medicines for that. She has developed white patches specifically on her face. I'm very worried what should i do?

if she refuses to eat regular foods, you can try changing the taste by giving her variation. i would suggest you put the food in cute cartoon utensils and make her eat while distracting her. try changing the way you cook, maybe use some different recipes. if possible, involve her in some way in the cooking process. also, make her eat around the same time each day, and do so for 20 to 30 minutes, post which stop feeding. do this every day. it will trigger her body clock to feel hunger around the same time each day, and gradually she will start eating.
