How much sugar is too much sugar? Most of us know that too much sugar isn't great for our kids, but are there specific guidelines we can follow? Health Canada and the World Health Organization recommend no more than 10% of your child's calories to come from added sugars. This looks different for different ages so check out the table for your child's specific needs. ... Also remember that 1 teaspoon of sugar is equal to 4 grams of sugar. Head over to the blog to read more about sugar consumption. https://www.nourishedbeginnings.ca/kids-nutrition Surprised?

Lesson for today: Don’t take nutrition or supplement advice from random people with no background, because it worked for them. Every child is different.... Every product is different. Everyone’s needs are different. Don’t worry though. Nourished Beginnings can be your partner in nutrition... no problem.

Is your child: Hyperactive? Irritable? Perceived as overactive or having a short attention span?... It may not be their fault. They may be deficient in iron That means: 1 They may be lacking enough iron in their diet 2 They aren't absorbing it well enough 3 They are losing iron somewhere 4 They need more than what is typically recommended 5 Etc Iron deficiency has many more physical signs and symptoms, but these behaviour related ones are some that aren't thought about. If your child is showing some of these outward behavioural signs, it would be worth checking in with us by booking a quick call to see if we can help.

CHOOSING A MULTIVITAMIN IS CONFUSING RIGHT? If its been advised that your child take one, these are 5 questions you should ask when picking a multi. 1 Is it free from artificial flavours, colours, sweeteners or allergenic ingredients?... 2 Does it contain all the fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, & K)? 3 Are the ingredients coming from food or synthetic forms of nutrients? Are the vitamins in their active forms? 4 Does it have iron added? Should it? 5 Does it come from a reputable company? Is it third-party tested? Like anything, no one type of multivitamin is right for everyone and knowing whether to offer one is important. Also this list of questions is by no means an exhaustive one of things you should look for in a multivitamin. So If you are questioning how to choose one, lets chat!
