The Nutrition Decision: Be A Role Model For Kids

Once a child feels involved with a healthy diet, he is more likely to be a better eater, affirms Lucette Talamas, Registered Dietitian with Baptist Health South Florida. Keeping kids involved makes them feel like they’re part of the process and they’ll be more likely to make healthier choices, she says. Children not only learn from what they hear, but from what they see. Being a good model, adopting healthy eating habits will make kids have them too, she affirms.
