THE IMPORTANCE OF NUTRITION IN YOUR CHILD'S AIRWAY, SLEEP, AND MENTAL HEALTH

Nutrition is one of the cornerstones of optimal health. It provides the essential nutrients that your child's body needs to function correctly. A well-balanced diet supports the immune system, strengthens bones, enhances brain function, and promotes overall well-being and body functions such as breathing, sleep, and your child's mental health.

Nutrient-dense foods are packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and other vital nutrients while containing little to no added sugar, saturated fats, or salt. Prioritizing these foods helps children meet their nutritional needs without consuming excess calories, setting the stage for a balanced and healthy diet.

Examples of nutrient-dense options include lean proteins, vibrant vegetables, fresh fruits, and wholesome grains. These foods provide the building blocks the body needs to grow, repair tissues, and fend off illnesses. Ric
