What to eat in the morning when your child is in kindergarten

Some parents are accustomed to letting their children eat cereal with milk, which is both convenient and healthy, which is not entirely true. What you need to pay attention to is the fact that the sugar content of the cereals on the market is not low, and some of them are even higher than the cakes and cookies. Simply put, the breakfast cereal on the market is basically paying for three things: air, sugar and flour. If you don't believe me, take a closer look at the composition of the ingredients used.

The most common types of breakfast are bread, milk or juice. A typical Chinese breakfast consists of rice, which contains a lot of water and has been boiled for a long time to partially break down the starch, and is accompanied by dishes that, with the possible exception of eggs and tofu, are mostly processed and pickled products that are extremely salty and largely devoid of sufficient and appropriate nutrients. Western-style breakfasts are relatively better than Chinese ones in terms of quality, but they may also contain too much fat and starch, especially in the form of good-tasting baked goods, such as a wide variety of breads that contain starch.

According to a survey of more than 1,500 types of children's cereals, a bowl of cereal a day can make a child gain about 4.5 kilograms a year. Parents should look carefully at the nutrition facts label when shopping for cereal for their children, and do the math to figure out that each serving of cereal their child eats shouldn't contain more than four grams of sugar.

The principle of food selection can be based on one or two choices from each of the following categories:

1. Cereals: whole grains, oatmeal, low-sugar cereals, wheat germ.

2. Proteins: eggs, fish, chicken or turkey breast, tofu, soybeans, nuts (e.g., walnuts, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, Brazil nuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, flax seeds, peanuts, peanut butter).

3. Healthy fats and oils: nuts, avocado, low-fat cheese (cottage cheese, one percent fat), mozzarella cheese (mozzarella, partially skimmed), flaxseed.

4. Vitamins and minerals: a variety of fruits, especially citrus fruits, such as orange citrus, grapefruit, lemon, mandarin oranges, limes, etc., and bananas.

5. Antioxidants: red pomegranate, blueberries, cranberries, mulberries.

1. Dry and thin with. Eat thin food such as rice, rice soup, soybean milk, not enough energy, eat dry food such as steamed bread, bread, cake, etc., not enough water, indigestion. So it should be dry and thin with.

2, meat and vegetables with. Breakfast should include milk, dairy products, eggs, fish, meat or soy and soy products. Should also arrange a certain number of vegetables, which can not only maintain the balance of blood pH, reduce the pressure on the gastrointestinal tract, but also provide the body with a certain amount of vitamins in a timely manner.

Some parents would like to prepare a more nutritious breakfast, but tend to ignore the issue of dietary balance, such as often give the child to eat milk with eggs. Of course, these two kinds of food in the supply of protein is excellent, but the carbohydrate content is less, a morning calorie needs only rely on protein supply, both the amount of insufficient, but also a waste of protein. According to the ratio, while eating milk, eggs, must add steamed bread, bread, small months of age children can add cookies and other foods. Then, this breakfast nutrients are balanced.

Children are the peak period of growth and development, focusing on supplementing rich protein and calcium is quite important. First of all, we should eat a small amount of less sugary food, in order to prevent dental caries and obesity. In the conditions permit, children's breakfast is usually a cup of milk, an egg and one or two slices of bread for the best. Milk can be alternated with fruit juice and other beverages. Bread can sometimes be replaced with cookies or steamed buns.

Additionally, it is important to note that:

1. Eating breakfast when you get up is easy to digest, and it is usually better to eat it 20 to 30 minutes after you get up.

2. People who have the habit of waking up early, breakfast can be arranged to eat after 7 o'clock is better.

3. Don't eat too fast just because you're in a hurry, so as not to damage your digestive system.

4. Breakfast should also be timed, otherwise it will affect digestion and absorption.

5. Food eaten after breakfast is not a substitute for breakfast, so it is unscientific to skip breakfast and rely on additional meals.

6. Parental role model is very important, only parents take the lead to eat a nutritious and healthy breakfast, the child will develop a good
