Nutrition Issues with Day Care Children December 30, 2011

As per the study 82% of American children under the age of 6 are in day care while their parents work. Because of this meals are eaten at the day care where the parents are not able to track and control the food habits of their children
In a new study, Benjamin Neelon and her colleagues reviewed 42 studies of obesity prevention related practices in day care. As per them most states have minimal requirements for healthy eating and physical activity in day care that may differ from public health expert recommendations.
Day cares which are financed by government should follow the diet which is high in nutrients but low in fat, sugar, and salt. But still some day care centres fall short of meeting those standards.
