What Does A Child Need To Eat To Grow And Develop Properly?

Nutrition is based on the same principles as nutrition for adults. Everyone needs the same types of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, protein, and fat. Children, however, need different amounts of specific nutrients at different ages. When parents feed their children all-natural foods that offer a variety of textures and flavors, it helps them develop good eating habits and encourages healthy weight gain. Proper eating habits in childhood and adolescence are important for proper growth and development, as well as to prevent various health conditions.
