Children’s eating patterns seem set in infancy

Healthful eating early in life pays dividends later

Interesting article about a recent supplement of the Journal Pediatrics which included 11 U.S. government funded studies that tracked the eating patterns of about 1,500 individuals.


Highlights include:

  • infrequent intake of fruits and vegetables during late infancy was associated with infrequent intake of those foods at six years of age.
  • researchers suggested that parents and caregivers get babies interested in fruit and vegetables by late infancy, between 10 and 12 months.
  • repeated exposure to foods increases acceptance.
  • parents should lead by example by eating all food groups.
  • infant feeding does help predict some health outcomes later in childhood, such as some infectious diseases and childhood obesity, but not others like food allergies.
