Hello, I have 3 years Kid, just wanted to check with you about what is the best nutrition for him. Also please advice on best heath drink.

Question

Hello lybrate-user, Brain development in humans takes place at the age of 2 to 5 yrs, after this even though you keep on providing and adding nutrients in diet for brain development will not pay way for it. Basically the main key is DHA. Best is to give your kid natural sources like milk, paneer, chenna, fruits and vegetables, pulses, eggs and fish (if non-vegetarian). Also another thing should be kept in mind the kid's food habits grow from this stage of life. So if now you make sure you are providing you kid a health diet then possibility is this that your kid will have healthy food choises later in future. Now question arises where can you fin DHA, we come across many advertisements about DHA health drinks, am not sure about their fulfilment, but milk (cow milk a lil diluted), eggs (best boiled & poached), fish protein (rohu, bhetki, pomfet, katla, talapia), fruits (mango, papaya, chiku, kiwis, apple, grapes, pomegrate, bananas), and at last but not the least coconut water will surely guarantee its fulfilment! I hope this will be helpful to you. Thank you. Have a nice day!
