अब Quizwiz के साथ अपने होमवर्क और परीक्षाओं को एस करें!

Teens: Eating on the Go

40 to 50 percent of the calories in the average fast -food meal comes from fat and many options are very high in sodium. As teens become more mobile and make more decisions without their parents present, good nutritional choices are at risk

breast milk per day

A baby who nursed every two to three hours during early infancy may enjoy three or four meals of (along with several snacks) by her twelfth month

Teens: Exercise and Physical Activity

Adjustments when sports are over Adjustments as caloric needs and activity changes

drop

After the child's first birthday, the parent will probably notice a sharp in his or her appetite

health choice

Allow the toddler to help prepare foods. Little ones can sprinkle cheese, place raisins on top or spread peanut butter. Use cookie cutters to form unique shapes in bread, shake up beverages and roll up tortillas. Keep a bowl of fruit on the table, counter or refrigerator so the child can view it as an option. Good food at a young age plays a role later in life

Make sure your child eats only while seated and while supervised by an adult

Although your one-year-old may want to do everything at once, "eating on the run" or while talking increases the risk of choking. Teach your child as early as possible to finish a mouthful prior to speaking

Food Tastes Different

Are foods not as tasty as they used to be? It might not be the cook's fault! Maybe your sense of taste, smell, or both has changed. Growing older can cause your senses to change, but so can a variety of other things such as dental problems or medication side effects. Taste and smell are important for healthy appetite and eating

Toddler: Two years Concerns

At age two, the child should be able to: use a spoon drink from a cup with just one hand feed him or herself a wide variety of finger foods

spoonfuls

Babies need only a few as they begin solids

Pre-teens

Boys require an average of 2,800 calories per day Girls require an average of 2,200 calories per day

Teach basic table manners

By age four, he or she will no longer grip the fork or spoon in his or her fist and be able to hold them like an adult ◦With help, he or she can begin learning the proper use of a table knife ◦Learn not to talk with a full mouth Learn to use a napkin Learn not reaching across another person's plate Family needs to model the manners. Have your child set the table or help in some other way in preparing the meal Turn off the TV and other technology at mealtimes

Toddler: Three years

By age three, children are less likely to use eating—or not eating—to be defiant◦Generally, they will learn to better interact, participate, and enjoy family meals

Teens: Nutritional Needs

Calcium, to build strong bones and teeth Vitamin D, to keep bones healthy◦Fiber, to help you stay regular and feel full Protein, to build healthy muscle Iron to help you grow

2 YEARS

Can use a spoon and drink from a cup Can be easily distracted Growth slows and appetite drops Develops likes and dislikes Can be very messy May suddenly refuse certain foods

Adults

Continue to follow the standard plan for good nutrition. Will need to alter caloric intake as your activity level decreases or loses intensity Focus on eating for optimum health, to prevent disease, and stay independent

Older Adult: Roadblocks

Cooking or eating alone Problems chewing foods Hard to swallow food Foods taste differently Don't feel like eating; not hungry Losing weight; not enough calories Physical problems affecting eating Medication interactions/side effects Lactose intolerance

meats

Current recommendations are that , such as turkey, chicken, and beef, should be added as one of the first solids to the breastfed infant's diet

Teens: Sweet 16

Decision making once they become mobile. Spending a lot more time away from parents and parental decisions Nutrition becomes up to them most, if not all, times of the day

He or she is still learning to chew and swallow efficiently and may gulp food down when in a hurry to get on with playing - the risk of choking is high

Do not fixate on amounts Do not make mealtimes a battle

Problems Chewing Food

Do you avoid some foods because they are hard to chew? People who have problems with their teeth or dentures often avoid eating meat, fruits, or vegetables and might miss out on important nutrients. If you are having trouble chewing, see your dentist to check for problems. If you wear dentures, the dentist can check how they fit

infancy

During the first 6 months of life, your baby needs only breast milk or formula for proper nutrition Your baby will digest breast milk more quickly than formula the newborn may need to nurse 8 to 12 times per day, or every 2 to 3 hours. Be sure you empty the breasts regularly by feeding or using a breast pump prevents them from becoming overly full and achy will allow the mother to continue producing milk

Infants: birth to 1 year

During the first 6 months of life, your baby needs only breast milk or formula for proper nutrition

eating the same foods family

During the preschool and kindergarten years, the child should be as the rest of the

infant to one year

During the second half of the year, your breast milk will continue to provide the great majority of necessary nutrients as the baby starts to sample a variety of new foods

Teens: Positive Nutrition Practices

Eat breakfast every day Pack lunch on school days Eat dinner with the family Get involved in grocery shopping and meal planning at home

Don't count on the child always eating it that way though—the eating habits of toddlers are erratic and unpredictable from one day to the next

Eat everything in sight at breakfast and almost nothing else for the rest of the day. Eat only the same food for three days in a row—and then reject it entirely. Eat 1,000 calories one day, but then eat noticeably more or less over the next day or two

Teens: Beverage Choices

Education on the added calories, sugar, and caffeine in beverages. Opportunities to get water

Toddlers: One year

Encourage, but don't pressure or force your child to eat at a particular time. One year olds need foods from the same basic nutrition groups that you do. Don't restrict fats from your one-year -old's menu. Be sure the food is cool enough to prevent mouth burns. Don't give foods that are heavily spiced, salted, buttered, or sweetened

Teens: Breakfast

Fix breakfast the night before. If time is tight go with quick -yogurt, fruit, whole grain cereal Think beyond traditional breakfast fare. When a sit- down breakfast is out of the question, pack a breakfast-to -go

Teens: Starts at home

Growing up with good nutrition, habits, and modeling. Prepared at home. Inclusion in Preparation

5 YEARS

Has fewer demands Will usually accept the food that's available Dresses and eats with minor supervision

Teens: Snacking

Have healthy snacks on hand. If the pantry is stocked with plenty of low-fat, low -sugar, low salt snacks, that's what he'll grab. So do away with the non-nutritious products, such as candy, cake, and soft drinks. You might have to put up with a day or two of protest Hey, what happened to the glazed donuts?! Where'd all the cookies go. Now are you ready to get really radical? Keep cleaned and ready-to -eat celery stalks, carrot sticks, fresh strawberries, melon wedges and other favorite fruits and veggies in your refrigerator, and see what happens. I know with my own kids that they would never dream of taking the time to peel an orange or cut up a cantaloupe, which they love, but if I set down a platter of cut up fruit or vegetables, they eat it every time

Sometimes Hard to Swallow Your Food

If food seems to get stuck in your throat, it might be that less saliva in your mouth is making it hard for you to swallow your food. Drinking plenty of liquids with your meal might help. There may be other reasons you are having trouble swallowing your food, including problems with the muscles or nerves in your throat, problems with your esophagus, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Talk to your doctor about what might be causing the problem

Infants: birth to 1 year

If the baby is fed formula, he/she will eat about 6 to 8 times per day, or every 2 to 4 hours Start the newborn with 2 to 3 ounces at every feeding (16 to 24 ounces a day

Some pediatricians recommend an iron supplement

If this is the case, be careful to give the exact dose prescribed by your doctor. Always store iron and vitamin preparations out of the reach of young children in the household, since overdoses can be toxic

Teens: Skipping Breakfast

In a Gallup poll of more than four hundred boys and girls aged nine to fifteen, fully half claimed to skip breakfast on school mornings. Many teens just aren't hungry at that hour, but the major obstacle to a sound morning meal seems to be a lack of time By the time they finally sit down to lunch in the school cafeteria, they may have gone twelve, fourteen hours or more without eating This deprives their brains of essential nutrients needed for concentration, short term memory, problem solving and processing information Missing any of the three traditional square meals also reduces by one third their chance of meeting the daily required intake (DRI) for calcium

4 YEARS

Influenced by TV, media, and peers May dislike many mixed dishes Rarely spills with spoon or cup Knows what table manners are expected Can be easily sidetracked May suddenly refuse certain foods

only one new food and wait several days

Introduce at a time and before you add another new food, to make sure your child does not have a negative reaction

Infants: Introducing solids - cereal

Iron-fortified infant cereal (such as rice cereal or oatmeal) is another good solid food to complement breast milk. Single- ingredient product—that is, rice cereal or oatmeal—and does not contain added fruit, milk or yogurt solids, or infant formula -this will decrease the likelihood of an allergic reaction. You can mix the cereal with breast milk, water, or formula (if the mother has already introduced formula to the baby) until it is a thin consistency. As your baby gets used to the taste and texture, you can gradually make it thicker and increase the amount

Call the health care provider if concerned because the baby

Is not eating enough◦Is eating too much◦ Is gaining too much or too little weight◦Has an allergic reaction to food

Small portions for small children

Just Not Hungry

Maybe you are not sad, but just can't eat very much. Changes to your body as you age can cause some people to feel full sooner than they did when younger. Or lack of appetite might be the side effect of a medicine you are taking—your doctor might be able to suggest a different drug

Tired of Cooking or Eating Alone

Maybe you are tired of planning and cooking dinners every night. Have you considered some potluck meals? If everyone brings one part of the meal, cooking is a lot easier, and there might be leftovers to share. Or try cooking with a friend to make a meal you can enjoy together. Also look into having some meals at a nearby senior center, community center, or religious facility. Not only will you enjoy a free or low-cost meal, but you will have some company while you eat
