Hi
If eating disorder is leading to such symptoms of nutrient deficiency then I would recommend you to visit a pediatrician for complete clinical evaluation and laboratory evaluation. There are several reasons such as food intolerance, malabsorption disorders and pathological conditions which can cause such severe aversion to food.
