My son will be 2 on may 9th. he will not eat hardly anything. would it be okay to give him some pediasure to get some nutrients in him?

Nutritional shakes: Picky eaters can benefit from nutritional shakes to supplement their diet. Look for the source of the problem. If your child is drinking juice daily and eating sweets or high sugar fruit at every turn it may be filling him up with empty calories. Try eliminating these items and substituting plain meats, vegetables and whole grains for good nutrition. Adding pediasure will help as well.
