What they eat is important

Many parents who are stressed about their children's behavior sometimes forget to consider what their children are eating. What children consume has a great deal to do with how the chemicals in their bodies interact. Processing food and drink can affect behavior. Some reactions are common but there are also unique reactions for certain children. It would be important for parents to monitor what children eat as a good place to start to see if certain foods or drinks affect their child in unhealthy ways.
Many parents also are concerned that their children are too hyper...ready to jump to a diagnosis and medication. When discussing food intake it is often discovered that some of these children also eat tons of sugar and other sweet foods....some obvious like coca-cola??? but others more subtle like cereals...read the ingredients there is tons of sugar in many foo and drink products.
So parents..once again lots to learn...read read read...labels...articles on reations, and monitor what your child puts in their bodies now and help them develop good healthy eating habits which will probably carry on throughout their lives.
