How to deal with lack of appetite in children?
12 September 2018
Is your child a picky eater? Is he reluctant to sit down at the table, shakes his head in distaste and leaves most of the meal on the plate? This is undoubtedly a problem that many parents encounter. Requests and threats will not bring any results. However, there are ways to effectively persuade your child to eat.
- As a picky eater, I struggled with a similar problem for a long time. As do some parents who visit our clinics with their children. It's a problem, but it can be effectively dealt with. – says Renata Góral, MD, a family medicine specialist from NZOZ “Twój Lekarz”, who sees patients at the clinic on Skarbowców Street in Wrocław.
What to do and what to avoid? First of all, don't force anything. Phrases like "eat it or you won't grow", "if you don't eat it, you won't get dessert" most often have the opposite effect. You can find more advice from Dr. Renata Góral on our official Facebook profile. The first one has already been posted there. We will publish the next ones soon. It is worth following our fanpage closely. There you will also find advice from other specialists from NZOZ "Twój Lekarz".
In connection with the publication of Gazeta Wrocławska of 22 June 2026 regarding irregularities in one of the private clinics in Wrocław, the name of which is confusingly similar to the name of our network, we would like to reassure the patients of NZOZ Twój Lekarz and clearly emphasize: the events and actions described in the article concern a completely different medical entity.
The holidays are just a few days away. Remember, vacation should be a time for relaxation, not searching for a pharmacy or doctor, or nervously checking the internet for advice on what to do after a tick bite, sunburn, or sudden diarrhea. That's why it's worth preparing for your vacation trip. It's not just about tickets, accommodations, and packing your bags, but also about your health.
