Natural sources of calcium for a child Bashny.Net

That source of calcium is milk, known to many. But milk is not popular with the younger generation who prefer sandwiches, chips and sodas. The national school lunch program (National School Lunch Program) in the USA developed criteria the daily meal of the student, which provides guidance on the five main food groups that it needs to contain.





As reported by Live Science online, a school lunch should contain fruits, vegetables, grains, protein and dairy products. In practice, only 27% of the Lunches that parents collect their child to school that contain products of three or more groups. It should be remembered that some people have a lactose intolerance, who need to exclude dairy products from my diet for medical reasons. And not children like milk. Of course, in all matters relating to the child (and adult too), it is best to follow the recommendations of the doctor, perceiving all the information from the Internet only as an auxiliary material.

Kids are hard to feed something "useful" from the point of view of another dietary fashion. However, not all ideas about the benefits and dangers of certain products are correct. It is very desirable that the diet of the child contained really useful items and was not disgusted him.

Therefore, as a source of calcium milk can replace several other products. Thus, we consider only such types of food that at least the majority don't make most children too harsh rejection:
