A calorie is a unit that is used to measure energy. The Calorie you see on a food package is actually a kilocalorie, or 1,000 calories. A Calorie (kcal) is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water 1 degree Celsius.

The nurse is helping the parents of a 3-year-old plan a healthy eating pattern for the child. What would the nurse recommend as
Svet_ta [14]

A serving size suitable for kids between the ages of 2 and 3 is roughly equal to one-half of an adult serving. This generalisation is based on MyPlate serving sizes, not the portions offered at many eateries. The suggestions are meant as a rough guideline depending on age and amount of activity. So a half-slice of bread would constitute a serving for a child between the ages of two and three.

The majority of 2- to 3-year-old children require 1,000–1,400 calories per day.

In a balanced diet, distribute those calories as follows:

  • Eat three to five ounces of grains every day, preferably half of which should be whole grains.
  • 1 to 1 and half cups of cooked or raw veggies per day from the vegetable group. Young children, like adults, require diversity.
  • Fruit Group: One to eleven and a half cups of fresh, frozen, canned, or dried fruits daily. 4 to 6 ounces of 100 per cent fruit juice maximum each day.
  • Milk Group: 2 to 212 cups daily. For kids under two, whole milk is suggested.
  • 2 to 4 ounces of the protein group overall each day. Lean meats, poultry, shellfish, eggs, soy products, cooked beans (black, pinto, kidney), unsalted nuts, and nut butter are all good sources of protein.
