AN APPLE A DAY STARTS WITH BREAKFAST
Getting children to eat a healthy breakfast can be a struggle — and the high sugar content of most commercial cereals has many moms looking for different options
"Starting healthy food habits early puts children on the path to living and eating well for life,” says Candice Smith, head of Vitality’s nutrition strategy, adding that eating together as a family is an opportunity to connect. "You have added benefit of choosing the best nutrients when you make your own homemade foods," she said.
American nutritionist and author of "The Flavor Full Diet", Dr David Katz refers to children’s breakfast cereals as “little better than candy you pour milk over, that happened to have a multivitamin thrown in for good measure”.
