Nutrition for children is so important
Why is child nutrition important?
According to MANA Medical Associates, Nutrition is important at every age. Your children need proper nutrients stay healthy and strong, and grow up healthy and strong. Nutrition for children can also help establish a foundation for healthy eating habits and nutritional knowledge that your child can apply throughout life.
Teach the importance of good nutrition, and help your children establish healthy eating habits. The more your child understands about nutrition, the more excited he will be about eating healthy.
Nutrients are important, but portion size matters too.
Half of your child’s plate should be fruits and vegetables.
Choose fresh foods over highly processed foods.
How you cook and prepare foods can affect the nutritional value. For example, try grilling, steaming, baking, or broiling vegetables instead of frying or boiling them.
It’s not just food that’s important. Drink water or low fat milk instead of sugary, sweetened drinks.
Different foods provide different nutrients, so make sure your child gets a good variety of fruits and vegetables.
