I'd say it's hard to starve when you have almonds.
Almonds are a *very* dense food item.
What is missing is: vitamin C and A, b6 is a little low.

Coconut milk is low in C (only 2 mg per 100 g).
Wheat grass is nowhere listed, but I know sprouts are low in vit C
(except lentil sprouts, which are reasonable high).

Coconut milk is devoid if A and wheat grass maybe a little low.

B6 is very low in coconut and almond deliver 18%, while the sprouts
(wheat grass) should have enough.

All other nutrients are *very* abundant in the items this child got.
At least reasonable, probably better what SAD children get.

A few carrots and lemons would have done it.

It looks more likely to me that this whole story is anything other
(hospital fault, infection, genetic disease, other disease).
The media just reports what it wants to see.
