Is Vegan Diet safe for kids?

Some experts even believe that following a vegan diet for an extended period of time is helpful to many children. When a child’s diet consists mostly of vegetables, fruits, and grains, vitamin and mineral consumption is hardly impacted. When compared to other children, vegan kids have a considerably greater nutritional percentage, as well as a higher proportion of fibre, all of which contributes to healthy development. Good eating habits established early in childhood begin to manifest later in life in the form of a good pattern of food consumption and fewer health difficulties.

8 HEALTH BENEFITS OF SPROUTING:

1. IMPROVES NUTRIENT CONTENTS:

Almost all the whole grains, nuts and legumes are high in fiber, B vitamins, iron, zinc and magnesium and protein. Studies show that sprouting may increase these nutrient contents even more.

Also check, How to improve gut health?

3. BREAKs DOWN ANTINUTRIENTs:

Antinutrients are compounds that reduce the absorption of certain nutrients within your body. Enzymes created during sprouting also break down the phytic acid present in some seeds. Phytic acid is also called ‘anti-nutrient’ because it makes it difficult for humans to absorb certain vitamins and minerals from food sources. By sprouting, the phytic acid of the seed breaks down and it becomes easier for humans to absorb more vitamins and minerals from the sprouted seed.

4. AIDS IN WEIGHT LOSS:

Sprouts are one of the best foods if you are looking for some weight loss. They are high in nutrients with very low calories. Sprouts contain a high amount of fiber that keeps you full for a long period of time. It also reduces the release of ghrelin, a hunger hormone, that tells our brain to eat more.

6 Easy and Healthy Fibre-Rich Recipes for Kids

foods that rich in fibre
| Srilekha

As parents, we make every effort to ensure that our children’s meals contain all of the nutrients they require. Protein, iron, calcium, and healthy fats are all important to us. However, one factor that is sometimes neglected is fibre. Fibre is an essential ingredient that helps our digestive tract function properly. If your child is constipated, it is likely that he/she is deficient in fibre. For a healthy digestive tract, two things are very essential – Fibre and Hydration. If you take away even one of these, you are in for a lot of trouble. Continue reading to discover about fibre-rich foods for kids and how to incorporate them into your child’s diet.

For every 1000 calories consumed in a day, a person needs 14 g of fibre. Below is the recommended daily intake of fibre for kids according to their age:

  • 1-3 years old kids – 19 g of fibre
  • 4-8 years old kids – 25 g of fibre
  • 9-18 years old kids and teens – 26 g of fibre

Health benefits of fibre-rich foods:

If you’re wondering why you should worry about adding extra fibre to your child’s diet, you will be pleased to learn about the health benefits of fibre.

  • Regularizes bowel movements: Dietary fibre bulks up and softens your stools and lowers the chances of constipation. (6 best foods for digestion and constipation in kids)
  • Keeps you full for longer time: High-fiber foods are more filling than low-fiber foods, so you’ll eat less and be satisfied for longer time.
  • Prevents overeating and obesity: Fibre rich foods helps us to cut down unhealthy eating habits and prevents overeating and chances of getting obese reduces.
  • Lowers bad cholestrol: Soluble fibre-rich foods such as beans, oats, flaxseed, and oat bran may help decrease total blood cholesterol by reducing low-density lipoprotein, or “bad” cholesterol levels.
  • Prevents diabetes: Fiber, particularly soluble fibre, can help slow sugar absorption and improve blood sugar levels in people with diabetes.
  • Reduces the risk of colon cancer: Studies have revealed that eating a high-fiber diet reduces the risk of colorectal cancer by reducing the risks of developing haemorrhoids in your colon.
  • Helps in elimination of toxins from the body: Fiber naturally cleanses and aids in the removal of toxins from the gastrointestinal tract. Fibre absorbs potentially hazardous substances before they are absorbed by the body and efficiently removes them.

Foods rich in fibre:

APPLE:

Apples are an easy way to boost the fibre content of your diet and cure constipation. One medium-size apple with skin contains 4.4 grams of fibre. It has both soluble and insoluble fibres. According to a study, pectin in apples can accelerate the movement of the stool through the intestine and aid in constipation.

KIWI:

It is not only rich in fibre but also contains a natural digestive enzyme actinidin which has positive effects on gut motility and bowel habits. With around 2.3 grams of fibre per kiwi fruit, it helps in softening and increasing the bulk of the stool and also increases the frequency of bowel movement.

PRUNES: 

Prunes are also known as dried plums and are commonly used food for constipation relief. They are rich in fibre, with around 2 grams of fibre per 1 ounce.  Prunes also contain sorbitol and phenolic compounds that maintain gut health and may provide gastrointestinal benefits.

YOGURT:

It contains living microorganisms known as probiotics which are also called good bacteria and help to improve gut health and soften stool.  Good bacteria produce short-chain fatty acids and lactic acid that may improve bowel movement. It helps to regulate a child’s digestive system and decreases bloating, diarrhea, constipation.

BROCCOLI: 

Just ½ cup of cooked broccoli contains 2.8 grams of fibre which aids in constipation. Rich in insoluble fibre makes it an excellent food for smooth digestion. Broccoli is also loaded with vitamin C which plays a significant role in building immunity and promoting overall health.

WHOLE GRAINS:

This delivers a variety of important nutrients that includes fibre, manganese, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, zinc and iron. A whole-grain includes oats, brown rice, whole wheat, quinoa, barley and rye. Just one ounce of wheat bran cereal gives you 10 grams of fibre.

NUTS:

These are another fibre powerhouse, which helps ease constipation. Almonds, pecans and walnuts have more fibre than other nuts. Just one ounce of almond contains 3.5 grams of fibre. One ounce of pecan contains 2.7 g fibre and one ounce of walnut has 1.9-gram fibre.
