Why Would A Child Need A Pediatric Dietitian?
Nutrition is an essential building block for every child’s health. Infants, children, and adolescents all have unique nutritional needs as they grow and develop. It has been shown that eating habits developed in early childhood can follow into adulthood. Therefore, nutrition education plays a vital role in establishing a positive relationship with food and prevention of long-term health conditions.
