Lively kids like bouncing around all day
long, which means they easily use loads of energy and the amount of food
they eat has to be constantly increased. The intake of sufficient
protein, vitamins and minerals gives them much-needed energy and helps
bone, muscle and brain development. We suggest young kids to consume
suitable vitamins so that their immune system is strengthened.

Protein is a
matter of extra concern during this stage of a child's life. Adolescence
is approaching and parents need to give much attention to their
children's health. If youngsters lack nutrition at this stage, their
bodies develop poorly, but if they eat too much of the wrong kinds of
food, they become fat. Therefore, balanced meals are essential and
eating too many snacks - like potato chips and soft drinks is not
encouraged.
