As your kids grow they’ll need some education on food, eating and balanced nutrition, because the way they eat now will set up their eating habits for later in life.
Of course, we know that’s easier said than done, but when they start school they’ll have a lot of different influences on how they eat from outside the home, so try and set a good example when they are eating with you at home. Eating a wide variety of food from the five food groups every day is a great start. And try to limit their intake of food that is high in saturated fat and added salt or sugar.
Having said that, we know just how difficult it can be to manage between the demands of work and school. That’s why we think the PediaSure health shake is a great fit for managing the gaps when it comes to balanced nutrition.
