CHILD NUTRITION PROCESS AND THE HABITS OF A FOOD DOCTRINE FOR A LIFE

Abstract

Food defines, helps, and influences our quality of life as well as our longevity. Poor nutrition in childhood can reflect later in adulthood with consequences in old age, just as poor diet in adulthood can reflect in problems in old age. Adequate nutrition can increase longevity as well as quality of life. Considering the increase in the age group of the elderly, the need for adequate nutrition to prevent and combat age limitations, deficiencies, and diseases typical of aging also increases. The objective of this work is not to create an idea that we have to live a whole life, since childhood, as machines to feed in a indoctrinated way to have a better old age, but to present types of diets, as options, in which the nutrition is conducive to a better quality of life. Based on the knowledge of neuroscience, neuropsychology, psychoanalysis and clinical nutrition, present diets, preventions, examples, and explanations that favor the understanding of the need and results of good nutrition. Some key points will assist in this nutritional summary, child nutrition options to help a good childhood, habits, and techniques for fun and enjoyable nutrition and how nutrition helps with mood and learning.
