Whole Foods Nutrition for Healthy Kids
www.superfoodhealthyliving.com Kids need whole foods to be healthy. As parents responsible for our kids’ nutrition, we need to provide them with a variety of the freshest, organic, whole foods so their bodies can be healthy and develop fully. Whole foods are unrefined grains, beans, nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables. Your child’s body relies on the nutrients from these foods for proper growth as well as mental and physical vitality. A deficiency of even one important nutrient can cause imbalances that can lead to serious disease. Whole foods also provide a wealth of protective compounds that can help prevent disease. Whole Grains Whole grains are much more nutritious than refined (white flour) grains. A grain is whole and unrefined if the entire kernel is left unaltered and intact. There are three parts to a whole grain – the endosperm, germ and bran. The endosperm contains mostly starch and protein. The germ is rich in unsaturated fats, protein, carbohydrates, vitamin E, B-complex vitamins and minerals. The bran provides a large concentration of fiber and also contains minerals and B vitamins. Through the process of refining, the germ and bran are both removed, leaving only the endosperm. This process strips the grain of most of its nutritional value, including precious compounds and plant sterols that are important in preventing disease. Many grains are now refined for commercial purposes. Refined products are white flour breads, rolls, baked goods and most crackers …

Learn about BREASTFEEDING VS BOTTLE FEEDING
Choosing between breastfeeding and bottle feeding/formula feeding is a
personal choice for a mother. It is a choice that is respected by your physician and
pediatrician, and they will give you some guidance on how to do so. However,
pediatricians do encourage that you breastfeed for the first 6 months because it has
a lot of benefits for your growing infant.
BREASTFEEDING
Breastfeeding has a lot of benefits for both you and your growing infant,
making it the first choice that pediatricians advocate for infant feeding.
ADVANTAGES
- Free: produced by your own body, you do not need to worry about your
budget in order to give your baby the nutrients that he needs. - Gets you back in shape: breast feeding causes you to consume a
certain amount of calories for production and secretion. Think of
breastfeeding like you’re jogging in the morning, only you’re sitting or
lying down and bonding with your infant. Aside from that, it helps your
uterus go back to its pre-pregnancy state faster. - Promotes resistance to common disease and infections: colostrum,
the initial breast milk produced by a mother is rich in Immunoglobulin
IgA. This form of passive-natural immunization helps is important for the
infant for his immune system is still immature. Breastfed infants have
lesser incidence of getting sick compared to formula-fed babies. - Aids in better digestion: the protein of breast milk is easier to digest
and absorb compared to those found in infant formula. Because of this,
there is lesser incidence of constipation and diarrhea. - Promotes mother-infant bonding: While you’re breastfeeding, you
always hold your infant close. Skin-to-skin contact makes your baby
more attuned to your body temperature, heartbeat, and scent.DISADVANTAGES
- Discomfort: some mothers report slight pain whenever the infant suck,
especially during the first time. The problem primarily lies on the
improper latching of the infant. You and your infant needs to be
comfortable with each other, and it takes the both of you to teach each
other how to feed your infant. - Only you can feed your baby: if your baby has gotten so used to your
scent, it may be difficult for your partner or other caregiver to feed your
baby.
