      Every Children and adolescents need to have a healthy nutritious diet that will help to support their immune system in order to promote their growth mentally and physically.

      Deficiency in child can be caused because of the lack of nutritious intake which can lead up to obesity, weakness of bones, tooth decay and other things, because the body does not get the correct amount of nutrients, so it restrict the body from performing healthy.

      And if children and adolescents have allergies or intolerances their eating habits need to change in modifying some of the things they should not eat in a way that they are supplying the body with all foods nutrients that gives you a balance diet and to be supervised by a dietitian, and if child is not eating or your concern about their high intake you need to visit a doctor for help in planning and preparing meals for that child or adolescent.

  5. I have learned that when we start Children with proper food choices, wish entails all the right dietary needs it allows our children to make good nutritional choices as adults.although they may divert at times knowing the right thing it's easier to reengage in good practice. I have also gain useful information on what to do in the event of food allergies or if Children decide to choose a alternative dietary plan

  6. some of the things I learned was, fibre keeps the digestive and immune systems healthy. A healthy diet with the right nutrition also plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy weight in children and adolescents. Eating patterns established in childhood continue into adulthood, so the more healthy choices children are offered, the better. especially about this disease Coeliac I had us to do a deeper search to find out what this disease is.

    3. Celiac disease or Sprue is an autoimmune disease that mainly affects the small intestines. Celiac disease occurs when there is a negative reaction to gluten (proteins which are found in wheat and other grains such as rye and barley). Oats (in moderate quantity) are usually well tolerated.

  7. I have learned that all children and adolescents need healthy snacks and meals to support their growth and development. A healthy diet with right nutrition also play a vital role in maintaining a healthy weight in children and adolescents and fiber keep the digestive and immune systems healthy. Reading food labels is the best way to know how healthy a product is, always look for the fat and sugar values as it guide you in making good choices.

  9. I learnt that a healthy diet with the right nutrition,plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy weight in children and adolescent,signs and symptoms of a pod deit includes being underweight or over weight and even obese also letting children have a poor physical growth.
    Also that allergies to particular foods or food intolerance for example lactose can result in a limited diet and nutrients deficiencies if it's not chan or manage safe...
    Lactose interlerance can lead to a decrease calcium intake so the child need to have alternatives for example lactose free cow's milk.
