Nutritional needs include calories and nutrition, and children are fully exposed to nutrition. Compared with babies under one year old, children's growth and development speed is slightly slower, so the calories needed for growth and development are reduced, but the amount of activity is increased, and the calories needed for exercise should be increased. Total calories per kilogram of body weight, slightly lower than the baby needs:

1. For infants under one year old, 1 10 calories/day.

2. Children aged one to two years 100 calories/day,

Children aged two to three have 90 calories a day.

Matters needing attention

It is worth mentioning that some parents think that the higher the nutrition supply, the better, and do not pay attention to the requirements of various nutrients and the collocation of various foods, so there are more obese children. This is related to excessive intake of fat and sugar, which deserves attention. Adult coronary heart disease is related to childhood diet. Prevention of coronary heart disease should start from childhood. Obese children are not necessarily healthy, and they are often "strong outside and weak inside".
