Poor Weight Gain
Poor weight gain is defined as gaining weight at a slower rate than other children who are of the same age and sex. Weight gain normally follows a predictable course from infancy to adolescence. However, some children don’t gain weight from birth, and other children gain weight normally for a while then slow or stop gaining weight. Poor weight gain is not a disease but rather a symptom.
The causes may include:
- Inadequate intake of calories or intake of wrong combination of proteins, fat and carbohydrates.
- Malabsorption of nutrients
- Requiring higher than normal intake of calories
