Suggest Diet Chart For A Child Having Low Hemoglobin Levels And Diagnosed Thyphoid

Hi..My daughter is 3.5 years old and has fever since past one month on and off.
We have gone for a blood test and it is confirmed that she has typhoid. Also her hemoglobin % is low.

The problem with the kid is she eats very little and I am really worried about her hemoglobin level.
Could you please suggest what kind f food she should take now.
Doctor has given us some antibiotics and said that we will have to go for injections if her temperature rises again.

Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this diagnosis of typhoid that your child has and this low hemoglobin levels. I understand your concerns about what diet you can give your child to have his iron stores and hemoglobin levels increased. The best way is to provide direct supplements in the form of drugs formulations. As for what food types, that would be very difficult because i have no idea where you are right now to provide food types that you can relate to. You may want to ask another question specifying your location.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. I wish your child a speedy recovery.
Thank you so much for using our services.
