The report on dietetic science emphasizes two important themes. First of all, it emphasizes a healthy diet for life. Especially from the doll, because the dietary preference in early life will directly affect the food choice in the future. The healthy growth of fetus and baby plays a key role in the health of children, adolescents and adults and the prevention of chronic diseases. The second is to emphasize the diet pattern. Dietary patterns include the quantity, proportion, type or combination of different foods, drinks and nutrients in the diet and the frequency of habitual intake. The report pointed out that pregnancy and breastfeeding are the key periods of maternal and child life. Dietary suggestions during pregnancy include: eating 226 -340% grams of deep-sea fish and other seafood rich in omega-3 fatty acids every week, which is especially beneficial to the healthy development of the fetus. Studies have shown that supplementing omega-3 fatty acids during pregnancy is helpful to promote children's cognitive development. Breast-feeding women should continue to eat seafood regularly during pregnancy as recommended.
The new report suggests that babies 6 months ago should be exclusively breastfed. If exclusive breastfeeding cannot be achieved, then mixed feeding (breast milk+infant formula) or infant formula feeding should be adhered to before 1 year old. From 6 months, the baby should transition to a nutrition-intensive supplementary diet (adding supplementary food) and eat a variety of foods.
The new report also pointed out that folic acid supplementation during pregnancy not only helps prevent birth defects in newborns, but also helps women with a history of hypertension to reduce the risk of hypertension. In addition, the new guidelines continue to encourage children and adults to limit the intake of sugary drinks, eat less red meat and refined grains, and limit the intake of saturated fat to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as obesity and heart disease.
