You could suggest some mix and match foods and also try a lot of different flavors of fruit juices, yoghurt, sometimes give a little bonus of that one thing that the child really likes after he eats the healthy stuff, make the child run around and play a lot after which he or she will be really hungry and eats anything.

First of all How old is the child?
Second Has he been a Picky eater from the begining?
Third What are their family habits about eating? If parents are picky eaters then child will be too.
Fourth Talk to the child about healthy eating stuff.(if he is more then 2.5 to 3yrsold they will surely understand)
Then do the Reward System......Fruit Juices and yogurts have LOT of Sugar in them,so he might feel heavy and again not eat food.
Lot of Exercise and LESS TV or Computer Games......
Do you watch TV and eat or Sit on the table all together and eat?


BTW is this one of the case in CS?........

Thanks

Lab would be
1) CBC
2)Lead in blood
3)Stool for OVA and Parasites
4) Iron Def

One more thing I forgot to mention above....Ask about the MILE STONES.
Ask about any more syblings? How are their Eating habits?
How much time do parents spend with heir Kids?
Do both the parents work?
Who takes care of the child when they are working?

Thanks
