Children need a healthy balanced diet containing plenty of fruit, vegetables and starchy foods.
Encourage your child to choose a variety of foods to get the wide range of nutrients they need to stay healthy.
Remember to include these sorts of foods:
milk, cheese, yoghurt, soya beans and nuts – these foods are rich in calcium, which is needed for healthy bones and teeth
fortified breakfast cereals, margarine and oily fish – these foods are good sources of dietary vitamin D, which helps to keep bones healthy
meat (particularly red meat), which is a rich source of iron – fish, pulses, green vegetables and fortified breakfast cereals are also good sources of iron
at least two portions of fish a week – you can give boys up to four portions of oily fish a week, but it’s best to give girls no more than two portions. Avoid giving children shark, swordfish and marlin because they contain high levels of mercury which may affect a child’s developing nervous system
citrus fruit, tomatoes and potatoes, which are all good sources of vitamin C....
Foods to limit
There are certain foods and drinks that can be harmful to your child’s health if they have them too much or too often....
Hope this helps you..
Thank you very muchhh...
