«We don’t need to eat less, we need to eat well.»

Eating disorders affect us all at some point in our lives, but when they become a serious health problem, that is when we need the assessment, diagnosis and solutions that a nutrition professional can offer us.

There are a multitude of pathologies, of greater or lesser severity, that require a specific, adapted and personalised diet, which in many cases will become the best treatment for the illness.

Both overweight and obesity are, in essence, nothing more than an excessive accumulation of fat that can be detrimental to health.

The root cause of overweight and obesity is an imbalance between calories consumed and calories expended.

It has become universal in our society:

1. An increase in the eating of high-calorie, high-fat foods.
2. A significant decrease in physical activity, as our lives are becoming increasingly sedentary.

The mother’s diet during pregnancy is very important, to avoid inadequate vitamin or mineral intakes, as well as the consumption of foods that unknowingly contain refined sugar, because such nutritional behaviours increase the incidence of underweight babies.

Nutritional deficits in the pregnant mother may force the developing baby to adapt to this situation of scarcity, which may result in future cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

We all know that breast milk is what nature considers to be the best for the baby. The relationship between the nutritional status of the breastfeeding mother and the composition of her breastmilk has been more than demonstrated, and can logically condition the baby’s health.

Infant nutrition from 1 to 3 years of age

This is a fundamental period in a child’s life, as the transition is taking place between the rapid growth of the infant and the stabilisation of growth of the pre-schooler. This is the period in which psychomotor functions (language, walking, etc.) develop.

Preschool feeding (4 to 6 years)

We all know that it is at this early age, when in today’s society, due to the prevalence of overweight and obesity in children, it is necessary to accustom children to healthy and nutritious food. It is essential to carry out a nutritional assessment of the child.

School children’s nutrition (7 to 10 years old)

At this age is when we can clearly see the tendency to overweight and obesity in most children, so an early nutritional assessment of them will help us to maintain balance in their development.
