✨ Up to 6 months of age, most children get the necessary fat from breast milk, or in some instances, formula milk. However, after turning 1 year old, children need fat for optimal growth and development, particularly for tissues, organs, cells, the central nervous system, and the retina. Fat serves as a primary energy source that supports adequate physical activity levels. What amount of fat is recommended❓ ✔️As per the ICMR guidelines, the child is allowed to consume 5 grams of fat per day. #childhoodnutrition #fatforgrowth #nutrition #health #onediettoday #growth #malnutrition #motherhood #mothercare #breastfeeding #instagood #dietplan #healthymeals #babyfood #delhi #foodsafety #righttoknow #ICMR #ghee #fat
