Many families have encountered the situation where despite providing their children with many nutrients, the results are not as expected, the children do not gain weight and do not grow in height for a very long time, even losing weight and becoming malnourished. This phenomenon causes many parents to lose sleep because of worry and not knowing how to solve the problem properly.

Children who do not absorb nutrients are called malabsorption syndrome. There are many causes of this condition, including abnormalities in the intestinal wall, the inability to produce digestive enzymes, and abnormalities in the intestinal microflora.
