Key Points

• Si Joan Brown, beauty titlist at hands-on na ina, ay aktibong nagtuturo sa kanyang anak na si Audrey tungkol sa healthy lifestyle. Limitado ang matatamis at bawal ang junk food—maagang tinatanim ang healthy lifestyle para sa panghabang-buhay na kalusugan.
• Ayon kay Dr. Catharine Fleming, Senior Lecturer, Public Health, Western Sydney University, ang mataas na konsumo ng ultra-processed foods sa mga bata, lalo na ang mataas sa asukal at alat, ay konektado sa obesity sa bata at pagtanda. Ang pagkain ng bata sa kanyang toddler years ay mahalaga sa pangmatagalang kalusugan.
• Payo ni Nutrition Coach Tara Tan huwag susuko sa pagpapakilala ng healthy food sa bata, magsimula sa simpleng prutas at leafy greens sa smoothies, wraps, o homemade baon. Pinakamahalaga, maging halimbawa ang mga magulang sa pagkain ng masustansya dahil ginagaya ng bata ang nakikita nila.
