Healthy eating is also essential for your child's good health, growth and development. Healthy eating in childhood means they will have less chance of developing chronic diseases like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity and some cancers.
To stay healthy and maintain a healthy weight, children need to be physically active and eat the right amount of nutrients to balance the energy they use.
A proper diet plan for a growing child must constitute servings from all four healthy food groups – Protein, dairy, fruits & vegetables, and grains.On the other hand, it is fairly important to limit sugary foods, caffeine intake, low-fiber foods, and salty or fatty foods, for healthy nutrition in kids.
