What are the Benefits of Moringa For KIDS?

The task of preparing and feeding at least three healthy meals a day is not only repetitive but also the most important one. This is where this miracle food helps. It is the most difficult task for a parent to feed their child healthy food. This is all the more true during the early foundation years of the child when the bones and brain are developing. Preparing nutrient dense food covering most important vitamins and minerals for the body is an inevitable requirement. With limited food choices that the child prefers, it does certainly become a daunting task to achieve complete nutrition. This is where this miracle food helps. Let’s learn what are the benefits of Moringa for kids.

What are the benefits of moringa for kids?

A parent makes endless efforts to balance all the nutrition required for the complete growth of a child. If only there was a miracle food which could single handedly deliver most of the nutrition for the day, this task of feeding healthy food would have become way less challenging.

Does nature have such a nutrient-dense food ? Moringa is one of the best food for children’s growth. All the parts of Moringa tree- leaves, fruit (drumstick), flower and root have a health purpose. Every part of moringa tree has its own benefits. Below here are mentioned the benefits of moringa for kids.

leaves:

The leaves can be cooked and consumed directly. They can also be stored for longer periods after drying. For kids it is easy to serve powdered moringa by mixing it in dough or adding to any gravy or soup or shake.

Just 1 tbsp of Moringa leaf powder is equivalent to 60g of fresh leaves. This portion of Moringa contains 100% nutrition of Vitamin E, K which is great for making bones stronger and better skin and hair. It also meets 50% of Iron requirement (Iron in Moringa is 25 times higher than Spinach) which is essential for higher energy in the body. In addition, 25% of Vitamin A nutrition for healthy eyesight is also provided. It has 4 times more Vitamin A than carrots. (Which foods are good for eye health?)

Drumstick:
  • The fruit of the Moringa tree is called the Drumstick. It can be added to any gravy or soup or lentil for consumption. Although Drumstick can be tough for the younger kids to consume directly.
  • Study indicates that moringa has shown to protect against the impact of arsenic in the body.
  • The high content of potassium (15 times more than banana) in Moringa also helps fight the adverse health effects of current lifestyle (food choices) that kids prefer. (How to feed nutrition to your child in an easy way?)
flower:
  • The flower of the Moringa tree can be cooked and added to gravy. It gives a taste like mushroom. They can also be brewed and enjoyed like hot tea (or cool drink with added flavours of lemon or honey). Hot tea is a great way to feed kids added Vitamin C for Immunity during the period of congestion, cold or cough. Moringa leaves have 7 times more Vitamin C than oranges making it a superfood for Immunity. (How to boost your child’s immunity?)
  • In addition to other bones friendly nutrients, Moringa also has 3 times more Calcium than milk making it an excellent food to treat weak or damaged bones.
  • An excellent source of Vitamin B1 and Vitamin E, Moringa works wonder on Brain of the child. The high content of Iron in Moringa, enables mental alertness.

Lastly, Moringa can also improve digestion in kids. The high fibre content of the miracle food helps in fixing any gut disorder which is quite commonly diagnosed found in kids nowadays due to choice of refined food.

  • In nutshell, Moringa food contains more nutrients than any other single food source. It supports an overall child growth by providing nutrition for brain, bones, eyesight, immunity, skin & hair, digestion.

How to get the maximum nutrition of GHEE?

Ghee has always received special attention. From being considered a medicine to now being under the lenses (for being a saturated fat). The previous generations still consider Ghee to hold healing and digestion/ gut fixing ability. The traditional Bilona Method of making ghee could tap more nutrition of ghee as compared to the modern method.

Over the course of decades, the process of making Ghee has evolved. The modern method requires cream from milk to be heated until all the milk solid has settled and fat has been separated.

WHATSAPP for concerns like Speech Delay, Low Weight, Frequent Illness, Hyperactivity, Low Concentration, Weak Eyesight, Improper Sleep, Pigmentation, Pores, Face Marks, Fine Lines , Lactation etc.

USE BILONA METHOD TO GET MORE NUTRITION OF GHEE:

nutrition of ghee
bilona method
ghee benefits
  • Traditionally, ghee was made with yogurt. Yogurt was set in clay pots to preserve and enhance the nutrients (calcium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, sulphur etc). It is then hand-churned to extract butter from it, leaving the whey (lactose) behind. This butter is simmered over a gentle heat to release the fat which is Ghee. This Bilona method of making ghee requires more quantity of cow’s milk compared to that of modern methods.

As you age, your body naturally starts to product less lactase (enzyme required to tolerate lactose from dairy). As a result of this, bloating, indigestion etc can happen with the consumption of dairy products, even if you were always a dairy lover. Traditional Ghee is lactose free and also a carrier of gut friendly bacterias (probiotic) because of being fermented (made of yogurt). These bacteria produce an advanced nutrient called K2 which aids in stronger bones.

In addition, this Ghee is also high in Vitamin A (good for Eyes and Immunity) and Omega 3 and 6 (good for Brain). It also portrays an excellent ratio of Omega3: Omega6 (1:4) making it a safer/ nutritious choice. No other commonly used oils have this ratio resulting in health damages.

A ghee made from desi cow’s milk yogurt using Bilona method of making ghee is ideal for consumption and adds more nutrition of ghee.

The Importance of Vitamins for Kids: Do Healthy Kids Need Supplements?

The importance of vitamins for kids are many, they help the body grow and work the way it should. There are 13 essential Vitamins — Vitamins A, C, D, E, K, and Vitamin Bs. Some help in eyesight and energy production, while others support healthy nerves and cells and in fighting infection. This article will help you understand the importance of vitamins and when to take supplements.

the importance of vitamins

Vitamins are found in the food we eat and some like D, K can also be partially produced by our body. A balanced meal full of a variety of grains, nuts, vegetables and fruits will meet the daily requirements of vitamins for kids. Nature has packed food in such a way that the nutrition received is well-balanced with complementary nutrients.

For example, Nuts have a variety of Vitamin Bs and E. However, for the vitamins to be absorbed efficiently by the body, they have to be consumed with fiber. So consuming the vitamin naturally in the form of nut itself (vs. a pill) is not only easy but also essential for its maximum absorption by the body. Secondly, consuming vitamins through nut (or any food) fairly reduce the chance of overconsumption of any vitamins. Excessive consumption of any vitamin can have adverse effects on the body organs. Lastly, consuming the nut (or any food) not only gives us Vitamin Bs and E but a lot more added goodness in the form of fibre and phytonutrients. So in nutshell, it’s always more beneficial to consume all the required vitamins through food directly.

When to take supplements?

While it is usually preferred to get the nutrients a child needs from food rather than a pill, syrup or gummy, it is not always possible. That’s because some kids are picky eaters and their intake of food is limited to a chosen few. Or despite consuming healthy complete meals, a child may have a severe deficiency of a particular vitamin due to a prevalent health concern. This may result in a deficiency of any key vitamin in their body.

The next best solution in such a situation is to consume supplements made of real food and fortified with the necessary vitamin. For example, some cereals are fortified with vitamin B12 as its found deficient in many vegetarian kids. Oils can be fortified with Vitamin D for kids who are off dairy. For kids who severely lack intake of veggies or fruits and hence have lagged development can support vitamin A intake through fortified oils too.

Most commonly we hear parents say that their child is active and looking healthy too so there is nothing to worry about nutrition. The most obvious response in defence to further questioning is ‘we also turned out fine without our parents worrying so much about nutrition when we were young’. Let’s understand this assumption closely.

Then and now
the importance of vitamins
  • Young and active cells: Kids have new and active cells which perform all the necessary tasks they are assigned. For example, hair cells have to maintain thick growth and pigment. They do their job well. Having said that, how soon will they start to show decay in quality depends on how well we are taking care of those cells. We need to protect our cells from free radical damage by feeding them the right nutrition they need for them to work many more years in their most active state. Or else we can see outcomes such as early hair loss or greying.
  • Less contaminated food: Compared to today’s times, food was far less contaminated earlier. The consumption was primarily local, fresh and seasonal without any unnecessary pesticides. This also kept the prices low and consumption up, adding to the daily nutrition.
Occasional consumption of processed food:
the importance of vitamins
  • Children nowadays have access to far more processed food than their parents. These are not only packed months ago, but also high in sugar and sodium, both of which can work in damaging our body cells. At least two meals in a day (today) have some form of processed food on the dining table.
  • Real test is yet to come: When parents say that ‘they have turned out fine’- it is only partly relevant. The real test will come when we see the bones, muscles, other organs performing their best and original function in the old age. Weakening of bones in early thirties is a sign of mistreating our body with the wrong choice of food (and lifestyle etc). Early mensuration, reduced vision, high blood sugar are some other examples which are now happening early in life. Imagine sowing a mango seed. How many fruits will the tree bear will depend on the kind of soil, sunlight, manure and water that is supplied to the seed. However, the result will only show many many years later. Similarly, what we feed out body today will only show many year later. The early years are most important as they lay the foundation of our bones and brain.

I hope you have understood the importance of vitamins for kids and their part in our everyday lives. To ensure that your child gets adequate nutrients, try to provide them with a well-balanced diet. Include a wide variety of foods while avoiding sugar and processed foods.

Kids notice format of food and not the food

We understand that making Healthy food is as big a challenge as feeding food to kids! Making food that looks great can help in feeding to kids, as most of the kids notice format of the food rather than the food itself.

In a perfect scenario, a mother would want her child to pick up the veggies, fruits and nuts on a daily basis. But it seems like most mothers are far away from the ideal situation. Forget kids, even adults notice format of food and fuss over eating certain fruits and vegetables. Nevertheless, what we can’t forget is that every fruit and vegetable we avoid, we also risk the deficiency of its micro and macro-nutrients, which are extremely essential for active growth and life long functioning of the body.

Kids who don’t eat well in early years end up having problems with digestion, weaker bones, delayed growth, weak vision, dull skin and hair. In the long run, these early concerns mature and take the form of osteoporosis, diabetes, depression, grey hair, baldness, early aging, obesity etc. Hence it’s utmost important to teach kids to consume a variety of fruits, vegetables, nuts and other natural foods. The next big achievement of course will be when kids not only love to eat them but also demand and notice format of food.

It is observed that it’s not the food that makes a child fussy but they notice format of food. If a child is given food in his/her favorite format in their early years, then they learn to eventually pick up and enjoy those vegetables, fruits and nuts without much fuss.

Format 1- Fries:

Kids notice format and If a child loves fries, then baking sweet potato or carrot fries with favorite seasoning is a no brainer.

  • Recipe:
  • Scrub and wash the sweet potato or red skinned potato. Leave skin on (skin is loaded with antioxidants and fibre).
  • Cut sweet potato or red skinned potato in wedges form.
  • Rub and toss them in 1 tsp oil (or more)
  • Sprinkle some salt. Good to use Epsom salt (why?)
  • Spread them out on baking sheet on tray.
  • Place on middle rack.
  • Preheat oven for 5 min at 200 Celsius and Bake for 25-30 min.
  • Sprinkle any seasoning on top and serve.
  • KIDS LOVE IT! So make extra 🙂
Format 2- Wraps/Cheela:

Another example would be a wrap made of ragi flour & chickpea flour mixed with spinach purée or beetroot purée. Replace tomato ketchup with nut spread or chutney (as ketchup sugar counters calcium absorption in the body). Stuff the wrap with cheese, tofu and sesame seeds and fold it in a convenient easy to hold format. kids will surly love and notice format of this wrap.

Kids Notice format of food
  • 1cup Ragi flour (optional)
  • One cup chickpea flour or mung bean paste (soak mung bean for 4 hours, blend with water to make thick batter)
  • 1 beetroot grated/ puréed (uncooked)
  • 200mg Tofu (mashed)
  • 3 tbsp Sesame Seeds or Iyurved Weight healthy savoury spread (order here).
  • Water (as required)
  • Salt (as per taste)
  • 2 tbsp grated ginger
  • Two tsp Ajwain/ Carom seeds
  • Coriander leaves (chopped)
  • MIX ALL

Cook:

  • Spread 1 serving spoon batter on non-stick pan. Apply some oil.
  • Flip other side. Serve.

Kids happily enjoy the ‘hidden’ nutrition of nuts, herbs and veggies!

Format 3- Paratha/Flatbread:

Sometimes kids don’t want to eat curry or sabzi with paratha.Stuffed parathas are an easy and healthy option to hide veggies & feed kids in such cases. 

Kids notice format for food
  • Make Puree of cauliflower, sprouted mung bean/ moong dal
  • Add to wheat flour or sorghum/ jowar. Add salt and ajwain/ carom seeds.
  • Put nuts and seeds powder or Iyurved Weight healthy savoury spread (order here).
  • Serve it as a paratha roll.

Kids happily enjoy the ‘hidden’ nutrition of nuts, herbs and veggies!

Format 4- Cakes:

Children love to eat cakes but parents are worried about feeding them nutritious food. Try to make this healthy no sugar, no egg, no white flour cake using nutritious & healthy dates, flaxseed powder & whole wheat.

Top it up with melted dark chocolate or Iyurved Daily nutrition choco spread (orhttps://iyurved.com/products/kids-daily-nutrition-chocolate-spreadder here)

Kids happily enjoy the ‘hidden’ nutrition of nuts and herbs!

Format 6- Pizza:

Pizza is probably every child’s favourite food. Hiding nutrition in their pizza in the form of veggies, nuts, seeds & herbs can be a win-win situation for both children & parents.

Top this with sauce, veggies, greens, cheese, tomato as per your wish. Preheat for 5 minutes and Bake for 12-15 minutes at 250 celsius. Serve!

Kids happily enjoy the ‘hidden’ nutrition of nuts, herbs and veggies!

Calcium Containing Foods: Must For Building Strong Bones

From being in the womb to enjoying your retirement, this one mineral is incredibly vital to our overall health. Especially important for adolescents who are building bones rapidly. Teens are growing fast and gaining height so their Calcium needs are also high. However, invariably they are most deprived because they switch from milk to non-dairy beverages (e.g. coke, ice-teas etc) and munch a lot of salty foods (e.g. chips, fries, pizza etc). Caffeine and soda lead to calcium loss from the body. Comfort-foods (high in sodium) is the other robber of calcium. At this point of time they badly need calcium containing foods in their diet to meet the required amount of this mineral. Read here to know more.

99% of the Calcium is stored in Bones and Teeth. If calcium is needed elsewhere, it is taken from the Bones. Hence it becomes imperative to keep 100% stock of calcium and consume it every day. The more bones will lend calcium, the weaker they will become. It is said that Osteoporosis is a disease that manifests in old age.

We only build bones until mid-20s and hence it becomes crucial to build strong bones and teeth to last us a lifetime.

Calcium containing foods
Milk & dairy products

Milk, cheese and yogurt are a rich source of calcium and are the most widely used calcium rich foods in India and other countries for kids. They are good for children who don’t have any milk allergies. In case your child has allergies to dairy products, then you should look for non-dairy foods rich in calcium. (Foods to prevent allergies in kids)

Moringa

Moringa is a superfood. It has 3 times more calcium than milk which makes it an excellent food to treat weak or damaged bones and also one of the best non-dairy sources of calcium. Some studies also indicate that moringa can heal damaged bones thus making it a must have calcium rich foods for bones. (Foods and remedies for cold and flu in kids)

Ragi

Ragi is also one of the foods which is very high in calcium. It is said that no other plant source can provide calcium the way ragi can, making it one of a popular non-dairy calcium rich foods in India. It is a whole grain that is gluten free also and can be used in baking cakes and cookies.

Vegetables

Cabbage, mustard (sarson leaves), broccoli & ladyfinger are a good source of calcium. (How to retain vitamin A and C in food?)

Seeds

Many seeds are good sources of calcium. For instance, 1 tablespoon (9 grams) of poppy seeds has 13% of the recommended daily intake, while the same serving of sesame seeds packs 9% of the recommended daily intake. In addition to calcium, chia seeds are also rich in omega 3 fatty acids. (List of seeds to eat everyday)

Almonds

Amongst all the nuts, almonds are the highest in calcium. One ounce of almonds or about 22 almonds, provides 8% of the recommended daily intake of calcium. (Top 6 benefits of almonds for kids)

Lotus seeds/ Makhana

Makhana or lotus seeds are grown in Asian countries and considered as one of the best calcium containing foods. Makhana is an excellent source of many important nutrients. It is loaded with protein, fiber, calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus and carbohydrates. Just a bowl of makhana is a great snack for kids. (Easy to make Makhana ice cream recipe)

Amaranth

In addition to calcium, Amaranth is a good source of folate and very high in certain minerals, including manganese, magnesium, phosphorus and iron. One cup (246 grams) of cooked amaranth grain delivers 116 mg of calcium, or 12% of the recommended daily intake.

Potassium rich food

If the child eats lots of comfort-food, then consuming Potassium rich foods (banana, spinach, cucumber, peas, sweet potato) will save Calcium from being robbed from the bones.

Calcium & Vitamin D 

Calcium always works together with Vitamin-D and Magnesium. So, foods high in these nutrients are necessary to be included in your kid’s diet like dairy, whole grains, nuts, greens. (Panchamrit benefits for digestion)
