The nutritional needs of a growing child are of considerable importance, especially during their early years. Essential nutrients such as vitamins, antioxidants, minerals and other important co-factors play crucial roles in the growth and development of skeletal structures, brain function, internal organs and many other areas of basic developmental health. Unfortunately, kids can be extremely fussy when it comes to eating, and as a result, many of these basic nutritional needs can get overlooked in the process.*
