The book is divided into two parts. The first physiological part examines the growth and development of a healthy child, his metabolism, natural and artificial feeding of infants. There is also a section on feeding premature and retarded children. The second part begins with a chapter giving an overview of the conditions observed in eating disorders. The following is a detailed presentation of the clinic of acute digestive disorders and chronic disorders, developing on the basis of malnutrition. In the same section, a brief description of vitamin deficiencies A, B and CL is given. A separate chapter is devoted to nutritional issues with constitutional anomalies. Relatively little space is devoted to digestive disorders in children who are breastfeeding. Under the general name of secondary eating disorders, rickets, tetany and various forms of anemia that occur in infants are described.
