My child is 2 years old, but the child has always been particularly lean. I am worried that the child lacks protein. I want to know how to judge the child's protein and energy malnutrition?

    Once a child lacks protein, it will have a particularly great impact on growth. If you can find supplements in time, you can avoid these hazards. Generally, malnutrition in children before the age of 3 can be divided into three degrees. The weight of children with first degree malnutrition is lower than the normal average weight 15%~20%; The weight of children with second-degree malnutrition is 25%~40% the body weight is lower than the normal average weight, and there are symptoms such as stunting, restless sleep, low appetite; third-degree malnutrition weight Lose more than 40% of normal average weight, the length is lower than normal, the development is obviously backward, and it is easy to cause concurrent infection.
