Younger children often have a
number of foods that they refuse to eat. Children can
be particular not just about how a food tastes, but
about temperature and texture too.
"Setting a good example is a good first step," says
Gratton. "Parents should make every attempt to
demonstrate healthy eating habits with their kids, and
this includes having regular meal times." He also
notes that kids are more likely to eat healthy fruits
and vegetables when they take part in food shopping
and preparation.
Winning Strategies for Kids
Nutrition
Here
are a few ways parents can help their active children
eat healthier.
Children are more inclined to eat healthy foods
when they are offered frequently and regularly.
Repeated exposure to vegetables, for example, is just
one way to encourage your family members to try new
foods.
It also helps to make foods visible and available.
Try keeping a bowl of fresh fruit on the kitchen
counter, or put crunchy, cut-up vegetables in the
refrigerator.
Another approach for increasing intake of
vegetables is by adding them to familiar foods.
Cooked, pureed vegetables can be added to pasta sauce,
for example, which boosts nutrition and reduces the
overall calories in the dish.
Smooth
Things Over
Kids
also enjoy smoothies and products such as Herbalife’s
new line of kids shakes - designed to be mixed with
milk and provide a tasty way to help kids meet their
vitamin and mineral needs for the day as a snack or
part of a healthy meal.
A bit of protein helps to curb appetite and limit
frequent snacking on less healthy items. Despite
parents’ best efforts, children’s diets may still fall
short in certain key nutrients.
"A
daily multiple vitamin and mineral supplement can help
to round out any potential shortfalls in kids
nutrition, and
can act as a safety net," says Gratton.
"Look for age-appropriate products, which target
the needs for the particular age of the child."
