Nutrition is what fuels a childs body for growth. With genetics and the other factors that tend to have a negative perspective on a child’s nutrition, parents must make sure that what they are feeding their children is the best choice and not just the most convenient. Proper nutrition influences brain development, behavior, and attention span, and it plays a major role in whether a child is at increased risk of obesity, asthma, heart disease, impotence, cancer, blindness, memory loss, and other later-in-life health problems. These websites explain that children should follow a healthy eating pattern that includes a variety of fruits and vegetables, whole grains and a variety of proteins. The Healthy Children website explains that the body needs carbs, sugars, fats and sodium, but should be eaten in moderation, as too much can lead to unneeded weight gain and other health problems. The website also adds that females from ages 9-13 should take 1,400-1,600 calories per day and 1,600-2,000 calories for males of the same age group. Although getting a child to eat healthy, regardless of his or her age can be a constant battle, though it’s one well worth fighting. A healthy child becomes a healthy adult, and only with support and guidance a child will be both.
