has he just started school/nursery?
if yes it is totally normal and will get better!
what you can do: loads of fresh air, go for walks or playgrounds at least for an hour a day. rest, make sure he gets enough sleep. diet, loads of fruit and veg. a multi vitaminmight also be good.

What mouse said - if he has just started nursery or school, this happens.
