6 Reasons Your Kid Is Always Hungry—and What To Do About It



Parenting can be repetitive, and that is particularly true at mealtime. Many feel like they are stuck in a cycle of making a meal. Clean up. Make a snack. Clean up. Make a meal again, and repeat forever. Sounds like you've got a hungry kid on your hands!

But children need to eat. From three square meals a day to multiple snacks, kids need a lot of food (and fuel) to keep up with their activity levels and help them grow1. For some parents, the requests for food seem never-ending. One of the concerns I hear from parents is that their kids always seem hungry no matter what they do.

If there's been a big change in your child's appetite—either up or down—it's worth checking in with their pediatrician to make sure everything is okay. For example, if your child suddenly has an insatiable appetite that seems extreme for them or if they have lost their appetite altogether, it may be time to take a closer look with your child's doctor.
