内容説明

This work provides practical guidelines to enable health care professionals to give correct and consistent advice to parents and carers of the under-fives, and identify those children at risk of nutritional inadequacy. Nutrition in the early years of a child's life has a major impact on growth, health and development and also influences adult health. Health care practitioners working in the community play a key role in ensuring that adequate nutrition is provided and risk factors are identified. The text is divided into three parts based on age ranges: newborn, one - three years and pre-school. Each part is sub-divided into sections which cover the child's nutritional development including breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, feeding problems, child illnesses, dental health and food safety. Vegetarian requirements and ethnic-minority diets are also covered.
