Meals Without Tears
27 Jun 07
Getting a child’s diet right is a minefield. We’re told: Cut down on fat and salt. Make sure they eat their five portions of fruit and veg a day. Watch out for trans-fats and sugars. Don’t let them become obese, or go the other way and develop an eating disorder…
And that’s before the battleground of the dining table… How to stop them throwing food/a tantrum/plates around? Or get them to hold a conversation, sit still, say thank you, not spit out food? Or stop yourself from yelling: “You’ll sit there till you’ve eaten all your spinach/Brussels/broccoli/rice”…. It can seem an impossible task.
Food is vital to help our children grow. But just as importantly, the attitude they develop towards food can lead to a lifetime’s pleasure or a lifetime’s pain.
If parents can get both right from the start, they can set their children up for a healthy body and a healthy mind-set for the rest of their lives.
That’s what Meals Without Tears enables them to do. This helpful, smart book is full of expert advice, action plans and Dos and Don’ts to let parents get to grips quickly with their children’s nutritional wellbeing.
Leading child nutrition expert Dr Rana Conway delivers no-nonsense guidance on every aspect of children’s eating. Throwing away the rulebook we all grew up with (“there are starving children…” is definitely right out), she gives parents the know-how they need to give their children the best nutritional start in life.
The knowledge in this book will help parents become stress-free. They will be able to relax and enjoy mealtimes as a highlight of the family’s day, enjoying good food together and developing deeper bonds.
