Komarovsky on the baby's nutrition after the year

Dr. Komarovsky focuses his parents' attention on such points regarding nutrition:

1. What the child will get used to eating until 1.5-2 years simulates the baby's nutrition in the future. A child at this age feeds on what adults give him - and it is they who lay the foundations for healthy and rational nutrition of the child.
2. Varied food - does not mean the presence in the diet of many different products, exotic and delicacies. In the diet should be present all the main groups of products - milk, fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, cereals. If the menu shows the products of these major groups in sufficient quantity, then with a variety in nutrition everything is in order.
3. The lack of appetite in a healthy child, Dr. Komarovsky, refers to problems more pedagogical than medical. In this case, the doctor recommends a simple prescription - to stop feeding and give the child the opportunity to "work up" the appetite, eliminating the possibility of "snacks" until the next main meal.
