Essential Nutrients For Your Growing Kid
Diet plays a very important role in the growth and development of your kid. If you are unaware of the nutritional requirements, then you may not be providing the right foods to your kids.
During the growing phase, your kid needs all the vital nutrients, that too in the right proportions. Your family doctor or dietician can always help you out, but basically you may need to ensure that carbs, protein, vitamins and minerals are offered to your kid regularly through healthy diet.
Here are some of the important nutrients that you must give your baby.
Calcium
Calcium is a very important mineral as your body needs it to develop teeth and bones. Children need it especially in the growing years. Leafy vegetables, dairy products and salmon fish are good sources for calcium.
Iron

be
dangerous

blood
cells
need
iron.
And
blood
supplies
oxygen
and
various
nutrients

all
parts
of
your
body.
So,
feed
your

with
kale,
spinach
and

meat.

body
requires

D
in
order
to
absorb

well.

is
necessary.
Mackerel,
salmon
and
eggs
contain
this
vitamin.

This
vitamin
can
