Iron rich food for toddlers
Hello Doctor,
Can anyone suggest iron rich food for 10 months old toddler. I was adviced by an experienced doctor to feed the baby with iron rich food as she is defecient in that. She drinks only milk and refuses other solids and even she never drinks water. But she stays hyperactive.. I wish to know the iron rich foods that helps in increasing her heamoglobin levels. She stopped drinking mothers milk from 5th month as it was insuffecient for me. Kindly help me with suggestions to improve her health.
