Healthy food patterns for children

in #health6 years ago

A healthy diet usually begins early, since we start introducing babies to solid eating, we need to make sure that it has a healthy diet. remember to always choose a healthy menu every time we prepare the food.

Obesity

Obesity is defined as the excess fat that usually occurs in children whose weight is 20 percent above the standard weight for height. In addition, there is a relationship between obesity in childhood and adulthood. obesity in adults is also often linked to a wide range of health problems, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart problems, and breathing. In addition, overweight children are often mocked by peers. conditions like this can lead to the rejection of the social environment.

See the combination of physical and psychological problems associated with obesity, we should prevent obesity in children. Here are two main causes of obesity:

  • Heredity factor
    Research suggests that if an adopted child is raised by an obese parent, he or she is likely to have less to become obese than the children of the obese parents. In addition, if one of the children of a pair of identical twins is fat, his twin siblings usually have the same weight although in a pair of identical twins there are more striking weight variations.

  • Unhealthy food
    Consumption of foods high in fat and excessive sugar will be easy to obesity. Nowadays, the tendency to lack regular exercise in children worsens this. There is nothing wrong if we educate children regularly to monitor his weight gain.

Effects of additives

Most instant foods in containers contain additives, ie natural or synthetic elements added to food to preserve, strengthen the taste, or make food more interesting to look at.

Additive can be linked to child behavior problems, especially hyperactive behavior. Most parents and health professionals find that when an overactive and impulsive child is required to undergo an additive-free diet, his grinding behavior will gradually diminish significantly. Although this will not happen to all children. Therefore, you should consider all foods consumed by the child.

Optimal child growth will be achieved when children get the right foods. Nutrition is needed as a source of energy, to maintain the body's metabolism, and replace damaged cells
