* It is important that when parents make the purchase will refrain from buying foods that provide empty calories, ie foods that provide zero calories and essential nutrients, an example of this are the sweets and goodies, also bakery products, the sweets, candies, etc.
* In its place is preferable to introduce fruits and skimmed milk (which provide the same nutrients and less fat). It is important to prepare the child a good breakfast, because it is the first meal of the day is the one to provide energy for tomorrow and improve school performance of children.
* Also important is the way to cook food, ignore the fried and instead opt for healthier cuisine, based on cooked foods, grilled, boiled, roasted, etc.
* Try to make the consumption of vegetables and fruits. To do this we can start by mixing small amounts of vegetables with different foods that disguise their presence, color salad (pasta, tomato, corn ,..), pizza with vegetables, fish croquettes with tomato and grated carrot, spinach tortilla …
* You should get used to chew slowly and leave the table without feeling hungry, to avoid a bite between meals.
For all this, it is very important that both parents at home, as educators in the school canteen, change the nutritional habits of children by providing balanced diets.
