What Is The Right Way To Feed The Children
Dr Pam Tony
You heard before that we are what we eat. And this is probably since you were a kid. And you probably tell the same to your children.
We need to let the kid know that it is important to eat well. This is even more so when they are growing.
Poor children diets can lead to lack of growth and obesity issues rather quickly.
We probably do not want to see that happen. So think. What do you want to feed your kid?
My wife and I embraced the notion of healthy childrens diets the minute our daughter was born. We wanted to get her off to a great start.
Obviously for nearly a year, it was all about the milk and formula. But once she began teething, we knew we had to make some choices.
One of the main things we did was introduce her to the fruit and vegetable group.
Now at the age of eight, she absolutely can't live without all her fruits and vegetables.
She has grown very used to having the fruit and vegetables. She is all over them.
Another prudent choice when it comes to childrens diets involves fast food. Steer your child away from this stuff.
Fast food is bad for all, not only for the kids.
They will only end up growing out, instead of up. Gaining weight can seriously affect their self-esteem. So don't allow it to happen.
They have not absolute nutrients. They are filled with fat, sodium and cholesterol.
Another food to avoid is soft drinks. Once they are hook, that's it. Never ever give it to them.
Again, make it a special treat thing that doesn't occur often. Instead, provide them with milk, water, and 100 percent juice. Let them choose.
They will enjoy it even more. Start the good health discipline early. Do not take the kid diet lightly.
