Basics

It is true that these days it is difficult for parents to provide healthy food for children, as manufactured foods and junk food are tempting from all corners. Needless to say, these should be avoided at all cost. In addition, I try to follow these three simple rules to make things easier and healthier, not necessarily in any particular order:

1. No TV in the house, because advertisements target children with bad food choices (anything interesting to children is on youtube or netflix anyway!).
2. No softdrinks in the house, because they don't provide any nutrition, just empty calories, and are a major contributor to child obesity and tooth decay.
3. Meals are always eaten together at the family table.
