Dr. Wang Lei
Will not cause malnutrition. After six months, when complementary foods are introduced and the supplementary diet is adequate, the child's nutritional needs can be fully met, ensuring normal development. The child will maintain normal growth and weight, avoiding malnutrition. You may also let the child drink some fresh soy milk, which is rich in high-quality protein and various essential trace elements needed by the human body.
