Child athletes push their bodies to the limit every time they step onto the court or field. Kaya, napaka-importante na mapanatili ang kalusugan nila. Isa sa mga mahahalagang roles mo bilang magulang ng isang active na bata ay ang pakainin siya ng nutritious at balanced na meals. Hindi lang ito dahil gusto nating may energy at gana ang mga kids for their sports activities, it also helps in their overall health and development and can even prevent possible injuries. 

Pero paano nga ba mag-prepare ng balanced meals para sa iyong active na anak? According to Pinggang Pinoy, a nutrition guide developed by the Department of Science and Technology - Food and Nutrition Research Institute, para sa mga batang edad 3 hanggang 12, half of the plate should include Glow Foods. The other half naman ay isi-split between Go Foods at Grow Foods. 

Tignan natin kung ano ang mga pagkaing nabibilang sa food groups na ito at kung paano sila nakakatulong sa kalusugan ng mga active at athletic na bata:

Glow Foods

Ito ay mga gulay at prutas na rich in vitamins at minerals na kakailanganin ng mga kids. Ang mga pagkain tulad ng pakwan, lanzones, mangga, kangkong, talong, at sayote ay makakatulong palakasin ang immune system ng iyong anak dahil may nutrients ito na tumutulong protektahan siya sa mga infections at sakit. Mayroong fiber ang mga ito na makakabuti sa kanyang digestive health.

Go Foods

Ito ang mga pagkaing sagana sa carbohydrates na kailangan ng mga bata to energize them para sa kanilang training o laro. Ilan sa mga examples ay rice, bread, root crops tulad ng kamote, noodles, at pasta. Magandang option din ang mga whole grains na may added fiber, tulad ng brown rice, corn, oatmeal, at whole-wheat bread. 

Grow Foods

Ito ang mga pagkaing rich in protein na nakakatulong to repair and build muscles na na-strain kapag naglalaro ng sports. Alalahanin na very physical ang mga sports activities, kaya, make sure to feed your kids protein-rich food tulad ng chicken, fish, eggs, nuts, at beans na makakatulong sa muscle development. 

Water at Nutritious Drinks

Aside from a balanced and nutritious diet, napakahalaga rin ng regular at sapat na pag-inom ng tubig! Tandaan, dehydration can affect your child athlete’s energy, strength, and coordination. Posible ring magkaroon siya ng heat-related illnesses habang nasa training kaya turuan ang iyong anak to stay hydrated.

Maari mo ring bigyan ang iyong active na anak ng isang nutritious drink tulad ng MILO®, lalo na sa umaga. When partnered with a balanced and nutritious breakfast, MILO® can help your active kids get the optimal amount of energy in the morning and get them prepared for a day of sports.

Ang MILO® ay may milk, a source of protein and calcium; protomalt, a source of energy; cocoa, a source of phosphorus; and iron and B vitamins to help release energy, together with a balanced and nutritious diet.

Balance talaga ang key when it comes to nutrition, mommies and daddies! Importante ito para strong, energized, at protected ang mga bata!
