The Ultimate Guide to Children's Nutrition

How to nurture happy, healthy eaters in the first five years
A definitive and super-expert guide to feeding your child and understanding their behaviour around food, from 0-5 years.

'This book is a must-have for parents looking to nurture happy, healthy eaters from the very start' ― Annabel Karmel

The first five years of a child's life are critical to getting nutrition right and building a positive, healthy foundation that can shape their future. A time in which the path of health and happiness, or an increased risk of disease and health challenges, can manifest as a direct result of what is put onto a child's plate. The right approach to nutrition can help promote healthy gut health, brain development, growth, allergy profile, food relationships, systemic health and impact a child's well-being for life.

From milk feeding through weaning, to toddler food refusal and fussy eating, to dealing with specific diets, allergies and common feeding worries, this book provides guidance on developmental benchmarks alongside useful ideas and strategies to help you navigate the feeding journey with ease. Parents will find reassurance and appeal in this evidence-based, authoritative, yet pragmatic guide.
