Nutriveda/Appetite Concern

[Guest guest]

My son, , has been on Nutriveda for approx 3 weeks now. A week ago I posted

the wonderful results we've seen so far. However, in the last week we've had to

force to eat meals - seems he has no appetite all of a sudden. is 34

mos/30lbs and has always been in the 20th percentile of weight for his age.

Docs consider him w/in normal limits. He's never been a HUGE eater, and is also

extremely picky, but he does eat.

He went from eating one pancake, 3/4 banana and full 8oz juice with breakfast to

now I am force-feeding 2 bites of a pancake and a couple bites of banana...but

he sucks down the nutriveda juice till it's a dry cup! Same for lunch and

dinner. He only gets 1/2 scoop NV with morning juice and 1/2 scoop with his

dinner juice. And he doesn't snack. Aside from his juice with meals, he's

MAYBE getting one full meal a day if I add it all up (in food). And, we don't

let him snack or drink liquids all day.

Has anyone else seen decrease in appetite for those kids who DON'T need to lose

weight? We're hoping it's just a wierd week for him and not connected to the

NV. We've seen so many positives we don't want to remove NV from his diet. And

I realize he's probably getting all the necessities he needs from the NV, but

he's not even 3 and he needs to learn the importance of eating meals. I can't

let him drink his nutrition alone.

Thoughts? Similar stories?
