Welcome to Ideal Nutrition
There is a terrific amount of publicity and growing evidence at present supporting the theory that poor nutrition is putting the health and wellbeing of the children of today at great risk.
Today’s diet offers such a vast range of foods yet the statistics show we are nutritionally worse off than the population 60 years ago when foods were not so readily available. We are exposed to foods laden with sugars, saturated fats, highly processed, contain chemical additives and preservatives and junk foods particularly targeted at children.
There is a greater comprehension, backed by numerous pieces of research that food directly affects growth and development in the early years of a child’s life. Influencing healthy school meals although beneficial, does not address the more important benefits of offering healthy foods from weaning and throughout the early years of a child’s development.
Your nursery can play a vital role in developing the taste buds of infants by having a practical and simple approach to introducing a range of basic healthy foods and guide them into a healthy eating lifestyle. 75% of a child’s daily nutrition is provided by a nursery if in full time care and therefore requires good quality healthy balanced meals, adding value to the service you offer of fully nurturing the children in your care.
A range of healthy foods will promote an infants natural development and assist in building a resistance to illness and disease. If a child is introduced to a range of foods it can boost their immune system, decrease allergy and intolerances, support cognitive function, improve concentration levels, mood and behaviour.
