Babala ng paediatric dietitian Dean Paningbatan, ang madalas na pagkain ng matatamis at junk food sa murang edad ay maaaring humubog ng hindi malusog na eating habits na mahirap nang itama sa paglaki ng bata.


Key Points
  • Si Dean Paningbatan ay isang paediatric dietitian na kasalukuyang nagtatrabaho sa Westmead Children’s Hospital, sa Sydney, kung saan siya nakatutok sa diyeta at nutrisyon ng mga batang may diabetes. Siya ay nagtapos ng double degree sa Exercise and Sport Science at Nutrition sa University of Sydney, at Accredited Practising Dietitian mula pa noong 2012.Isa din sya sa mga eksperto sa Filipino Australian Diabetes Support Network sa facebook.
  • 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.
  • Ayon kay paediatric dietitian Dean Paningbatan, ang tamang baon ng bata ay may balanse ng whole grains, gulay, prutas, dairy, at protina—hindi sobra ang dami, may malinaw na pagkakaiba ang everyday at sometimes food, at hindi ginagamit ang matatamis bilang laging reward. Mahalaga ring kausapin at isali ang mga bata habang naghahanda ng kanilang lunchbox.

'Usapang Parental' is SBS Filipino's segment on parenting. It features the stories of migrant families, parenting issues, raising kids, and parenting tips and advice from experts.

I tell parents: if kids have sugary drinks and snacks every day, they see it as normal, making healthy habits harder later. Start simple make water the main drink and limit packaged snacks to one, with the rest fruit and dairy.
