Nutritionist Explains Picky Eating in Kids

A nutritionist named Lovneet Batra explained why some kids are picky eaters.

She said it's not just about being fussy, but it could be because of problems in their gut, senses, or nutrients they need.

For example, bad bacteria in the gut can make food smell and feel bad.

Also, kids might feel stressed or overwhelmed by the texture or color of food.

To help, she suggested giving kids small amounts of fermented foods to improve their gut health, introducing new textures slowly, fixing any nutrient deficiencies, and making mealtime calm and pressure-free.

She said fixing the body's issues will help improve eating habits.
