Avoiding childhood obesity
1983
Sebrell, W. Henry
How a child is fed during infancy is an important factor in the development of childhood obesity. Fat children are usually the result of overfeeding during infancy. Eating patterns and attitudes established early in life continue and are difficult to change. In addition, fat babies are thought to create more fat cells than do normal weight children and the number never decreases. It is important to set a desirable eating pattern during the infant's first years. Recommendations are given for feeding the baby during it's first year. Beverages and foods not recommended should be avoided. Don't force more food on the child than the child is willing to eat and don't insist that all food be eaten. A number of other don'ts are given (e.g., don't mistake thirst for hunger, and don't compare the baby with other babies). (kbc)
