Wellness Tips

Special Tip for All the Parents

A healthy diet is not only what your child eats, but how much. All children should eat regularly including healthy snacks. Good nutrition starts early in life. Wherever possible try to:

• breastfeed infants; introduce solids at around six months
• encourage a wide variety of nutritious foods as all foods play a role in healthy eating and no particular food should be forced or overly restricted
• introduce reduced-fat dairy products from two years of age
• offer mostly whole-grain bread and cereals, vegetables and fruits with moderate amounts of meat products and dairy foods
• limit intake of added fats such as oil, margarine and butter
• instead of processed ‘snack’ foods, offer more fresh vegetables and fruit
• offer treats such as cakes, chips or take-away foods only occasionally
• limit sweet drinks, including juice and soft drinks, as they are not necessary
• offer water – it is the best drink for children.
