The Importance of Whole Grains with @EarthsBest!

Whole grain possesses natural nutrition and the USDA recommends that 3 of our grain servings each day are made up of whole grains. Whole grains have fiber, vitamins and minerals and when children begin eating whole grains early, they tend to develop a preference for those flavors for a lifetime of healthy eating!

Whole grain provides so many benefits and your children will gain several healthy benefits from eating whole grains at an early age! Whole grain is rich in fiber and helps maintain healthy digestion. To calculate the grams of fiber your child needs each day just add 5 to their age (i.e. 4-year-old + 5 = 9 grams of fiber). Whole grain also helps control blood sugar and maintain cholesterol within already normal limits.

Getting Your Kids to Eat Fruits & Veggies Plus Earth's Best Apple Sauce #Giveaway

As we all know, fruits and veggies are a very important tool in the growth process. Eating them regularly is a great habit and there are so many health benefits! For one, eating fruits and vegetables regularly can alp reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure and certain cancers. It can also reduce the chance of childhood obesity.

Sometimes children shy away from fruits and vegetables and many parents have a rough time getting their child to like them. One thing you can do as a parent is lead by example which is a great way to get children interested. Parents who eat more fruits and vegetables often have children who are less picky and more likely to consume more fruits and veggies. The key is to not pressure them into eating.
