As dietitian moms, our primary focus when feeding our kids when they were infants and toddlers was exposing them to a wide variety of foods in hopes of building healthy life-long dietary habits. But we’ve since learned that we may have inadvertently neglected providing adequate amounts of some important nutrients that babies and toddlers often fall short on. In today’s episode, we’ll highlight three key nutrients needed during these key stages and discuss the critical roles that those nutrients play in growth and development. We’ll share foods that help maximize those nutrients, as well as what we would have done differently. Let’s dive in!
This episode was developed in partnership with the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, a contractor to the Beef Checkoff.
