Peggy,
For the 18mo who is thin for height but lactose/soy intolerant:
- Flax seed, ground up and cooked with the morning oatmeal, will
increase fat content, and add beneficial omega oils. Flax seed oil
can be added to foods (but has a strong taste so would have to be
heavily disguised)
- There is lactose-reduced milk available
- some people who can't take milk can tolerate yogurt (use full fat
varieties).
- avocado is a nutritious source of fat
- nut butters, such as tahini, almond or cashew (if there are no nut
allergies); peanut butter is good and fattening, but there's a lot of
controversy about carcinogens and allergies right now.
- my two year old loves dipping her bread in olive oil.
Hope that helps,
Jennifer Landels
