The past years have taught us the importance of maintaining self immunity. To communicate the importance of nutrition to the masses at large, India observes the National Nutrition Week from September 1 to September 7th every year.
Adequate intake of nutrition is important to maintain a healthy diet. Now, we all know the necessity of incorporating a healthy diet. However, when it comes to the maintenance of nutrition of babies and young children, you need to be extra careful.
Nutrition is important for the growth and development of children. Your kid will need the adequate amount of nutrition to stay healthy and strong. As a parent, you need to instil some healthy eating habits for your child. These early habits can form stepping stones for future food practices as an adult.
A healthy and balanced diet can ensure that your child is getting the recommended levels of nutrition. If your child does not get proper nutrition, it can result in undernutrition which has serious health and development consequences. Child undernutrition can result in cardiovascular diseases and metabolic syndrome. Malnutrition also carries the risk of causing low intellectual and physical development.
Are you worried about the food intake of your child? Read the below tips to ensure that your child gets the recommended amount of nutrition. Please note that these recommendations are for kids above from the age of one.
In the National Nutrition Week, let’s commit to better eating practices for ourselves and children. A healthy body is inevitable for the wellness of our soul. Let’s get started with good health practices today for a healthier tomorrow.
