1. Calcium contributes to the health of bones and teeth, especially for developing children. The manifestations of calcium deficiency in preschool children are: difficulty in falling asleep, crying after falling asleep, easy to wake up, sweating at night and late teething. Calcium deficiency in school-age children will feel obvious growth pain, leg weakness, cramps, fatigue, irritability, inattention, fatigue and colds. Tip: Drink a cup of skim milk or low-fat milk, drink whole wheat milk every morning and eat some fresh fruit. Eat some low-fat yogurt, desserts containing dairy products or cheese after school, and eat some calcium-supplemented snacks between meals. Some calcium fortified juice or cereal products can be used as substitutes for dairy products to further meet your child's daily calcium needs. You can also eat a little banana or low-fat chocolate milk in desserts and snacks containing dairy products to promote children's absorption of calcium.
2, protein's supplement. Children who lack protein have poor immunity, weak health, illness and grow slower than their peers. Boiled eggs, fried eggs, omelets and fried eggs are all children's favorite foods. This food is rich in protein, iron and other important nutrients. Fish steaks and grilled fish made from fresh fish are rich in protein and fatty acids. Putting nuts into cereals, yogurt or vegetables can increase the content of protein, dietary fiber and unsaturated fatty acids in the diet. Make raisins, bananas, apples and other dried fruits into dried fruit slices and make snacks for children.
3, dietary fiber, children who lack dietary fiber are prone to constipation and loss of appetite. Start the day with a bowl of cereal porridge rich in fiber to meet the dietary fiber demand of the day. Generally speaking, the higher the sugar content in grains, the lower the dietary fiber content. In order not to affect the taste, fresh or frozen fruits can be added to the cereal to increase the sweetness and increase the appetite of children. Don't use juice instead of eating fruits and vegetables. Because fresh fruits and vegetables are rich in dietary fiber, fruit juice is not. Add some beans to soup and other foods to increase the content of dietary fiber.
What should I pay attention to?
Children's nutrition and health are not supplemented by taking medicine, but by a balanced diet. Medical experts pointed out that once there is nutritional deficiency, there must be something wrong with the diet. Parents should first consider whether the baby's diet is scientific and reasonable, and whether the collocation is correct. Timely adjustment after problems are found, and at the same time, natural foods with high nutrition should be enough to supplement the nutrition that the baby needs. Too much nutritional supplement is also harmful.
