Publisher's Synopsis
During and after pregnancy, nutrition plays a crucial role in children's health and development. Nutrition education can help mothers make better choices and know "what to eat," enabling them to improve their eating habits and those of their child.
Pregnancy, infancy and early childhood are the most significant periods of growth and development in the human life cycle. Poor nutrition during these periods can lead to a range of health problems.
Poor nutrition while the baby is in the womb and just after birth can lead to:
Growth retardation
Delayed psychosocial development
Cognitive, education and behavioural problems
Increased risk of later psychiatric disorders
It's essential that mothers and babies get sufficient quality nutrients. This should be a priority before pregnancy, during pregnancy, breastfeeding, early childhood and all stages of the life cycle.
Whether you're a first-time parent or simply in need of a refresher, this Healthy Pregnancy diet will provide invaluable advice that you can trust to help give your little one a healthy start. Women looking for authoritative, accurate information from a reputable source will appreciate this pregnancy diet cookbook.During and after pregnancy, nutrition plays a crucial role in children's health and development.
