#181: What we feed our children matters
“Never force, but continue to offer” — Dr. Yami
We as parents should feel empowered. Whether you are a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, or childcare provider, we can influence what our children eat, not just now, but when they're adults! And this is so impactful because nutrition has so much to do with these healthy lifestyle factors that can affect our development of chronic disease and our longevity and joy in life. This is huge!
In this episode, I discuss some exciting research that shows how empowered you can be when it comes to feeding your child.
Some of the topics covered in today’s episode include:
Importance for the 1,000 days of life for the development of healthy eating habits
The three strongest predictors of young children’s food preferences
How to introduce children to vegetables
