Breakfast

 Breakfast is critical for your children:

Good nutrition helps children grow normally and healthily, and after a long night of sleep, the fuel (food and energy) in children is depleted. So breakfast is the fuel that drives them to school, or to play on all day, or during our break, but what should they eat?

They come home every day, they go into the kitchen, they watch what you will cook for them, and then they come out, making sure they come back to check on their breakfast ready, to avoid this confusion, let your options not end, and fill your head with beautiful and different ideas, so your kids stand at the kitchen door impatiently and enthusiastically waiting for the breakfast meals. And keep in mind that eating healthy does not imply avoiding sugar in the morning. Baby bodies require energy.

So you have to choose breakfast carefully and have many of the sources that the human body needs from carbohydrate and protein starches, and today's meal is different from the next one because children get bored easily with food, especially useful and non-sugary meals.

What do children eat: Snacking, grazing, and eating on the go have become the norm for many children as they transition away from traditional mealtimes. According to a 2001 British Medical Association survey, one-quarter of British children eat crisps and sweets for breakfast before going to school. One in every five children aged 11 to 16 skips breakfast entirely. White bread, crisps, biscuits, potatoes, and chocolate bars were the most commonly consumed foods among 4–18 year olds, according to the National Diet and Nutrition Survey of British Schoolchildren in 2000. Green leafy vegetables were consumed by less than half of the children. This survey, the largest of its kind, examined the diets of 1701 children over the course of seven days and discovered that: Children consume only two servings of fruits and vegetables per day (five portions daily are recommended). One in every five children does not consume any fruit at all. More than 90% of children consume too much saturated fat. Most children consume twice the maximum amount of salt recommended. Half of all girls aged 11–18 years consume iron and magnesium-deficient diets. Children consume more sugar than the maximum amount recommended. When poor eating habits are combined with inactivity – watching television, playing computer games, and driving everywhere – the trouble really begins. Too many calories and insufficient exercise will result in an unhealthy increase in body fat. Why should you alter what your children eat: If children begin eating a healthy diet and engaging in physical activity at a young age, they are more likely to remain healthy and active throughout their lives. Children who are accustomed to eating vegetables or walking to school every day (even if it rains) will continue to eat healthy foods and view physical activity as an essential part of their lives. Those who eat fast food and salty snacks and spend hours watching television are also setting themselves up for a lifetime of poor eating habits and inactivity. It's also important to understand that the seeds of certain diseases, such as coronary heart disease and diabetes, are planted in childhood. Children as young as ten years old who are overweight are showing signs of artery damage and have high blood pressure. The good news is that changing children's diets and encouraging them to be more active can help prevent future health problems. What exactly is a balanced diet: A balanced diet consists of consuming a wide range of foods. Your children's diet should include all of the essential nutrients they require to stay fit and healthy. A healthy diet includes a variety of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals.

• Breakfast is essential, as previously stated:

• Access to energy and increased activity: Breakfast provides many mental and physical benefits to the body, perhaps the most important of which is the supply of energy in the morning.

• Access to a portion of daily nutrient requirements: Breakfast helps improve children's diets by increasing access to recommended daily nutrients.

• Maintaining children's weight and health: A lack of breakfast has been linked to obesity and a 94.7 percent weight gain in children and adolescents.

           Breakfast meals :

Breakfast is defined as a bite that is high in complex starch and slow to absorb, ensuring your child's activity throughout the day. Here are some healthy breakfast ideas:

   Option number one: A slice of brown bread, or alive, by 40 g, with a slice of low-fat white cheese, accompanied by vegetable slices.

Breakfast is followed by a fruit snack, such as 5 passing tablets with a tiny banana fruit or an orange with two dried fig pills.

Option 2: A milk or juice cup. A glass of free milk or half a fat is preferred.

2 cups breakfast chips

Boiling Egg

A third breakfast example: Toast with a cooked egg or an omelette with tomato and cucumber slices

A fourth breakfast option: A glass of low-fat milk and half a cup of buttered breakfast cereal.

A second morning snack of one cup of yoghurt, yogurt, or milk with three camel-eye grains or eight almonds

Eat wisely, and you will eat healthily.
