It is interesting that in a world filled with abundant food choices, the availability and knowledge of essential foods falls short, or felt out of reach. Increased food choices may overwhelm the brain, reinforce overeating and possibly lead to issues related to malnutrition. Allergies, over or under eating, and mental and emotional well-being top the list of health issues concerning children all over the world. In addition, sensory and behavioural challenges may also affect dietary patterns in children.
There is so much to know, too much to absorb, and sometimes we, as parents, do not have it all. That’s perfectly ok. We may not have it together all the time, but we have our children’s best interests in all that we do. As a mum with a son who started his weaning journey very slow and “difficult”, I am here to say it will pass and eventually get better. Your efforts in helping your fussy little eater explore and enjoy this world filled with exciting, strange, and colourful food choices will pay off soon enough. Of course, we will have people suggesting that our little one is not normal, or people who brush it off as “You’re just overreacting to your child’s needs”, or others who comment simply “You’re spoiling your child. Kids should eat whatever you feed them”. I am not saying that these people are wrong or should be ignored. But, with so much on hand, maybe we can take what they say with a little pinch of salt.
Having said that, we should still pay very close attention to the nutritional needs of our children. Not only are food choices crucial, but it is also important how food is prepared and delivered to our children. Digestion is a process which begins with the choice of food broken down in the mouth, stomach, intestines and eventually being absorbed into the bloodstream. The simpler the food is, the more easily it can be digested, absorbed, and utilised by the body. My son is definitely a picky eater due to his sensory needs. He rejected most foods and only started eating when he was halfway through two years old. The weaning journey was tough. Knowing that a child’s digestive system only fully matures at around seven years of age, I knew I had to come out with something to maintain a healthy digestive system for better physical growth and development, as well as to better support his immune system. That’s how Shane’s Kitchen started producing a wide variety of stocks and broths in Singapore.
