Worrying trends in children’s dietA recent complementary medicine research study from University of Adelaide has revealed that children aged 9 – 10 years have poor daily diets through consuming of 50 % of junk foods which are all high in salt and sugar content.

Lead researcher, Dr Melissa Whitrow stated that socio-economic status made little difference to the dietary problems highlighted her research.

“Based on the results of our study, there is much to be done to encourage nine-to-10-year-old children and their families to make healthier food choices,” she said.

When you add poor lifestyle advice into the mix the situation this raises grave concerns.

Governments therefore need to step up their health promotion campaigns and provide parents with the appropriate food and nutrition advice to avoid future increased healthcare burdens.
