My dog eats better than your kids. What a statement! But why is this so? Has it ever occurred to you that a low fat diet makes your child hungry at short interval of time? Do you know that unhealthy eating habits can lead to behavioural disorders in your kids?
Joining us on this show is Dr. Peter Dingle as we talk about nutrition and eating disorders in children. Along with healthy food for kids, Peter will throw light on the ‘five biggest lies of the food industry’. Peter will also be busting myths on ‘fatty foods’ and what constitutes healthy food for your children.
Listen in, as we talk about the ‘killer sugar’ and ‘excessive vegetable oils’ in packaged foods. We will also find out what "healthy snacks" really means and explain that all your child needs is to just develop a common sense eating habit.
