Babies and Children Can Learn To Love Vegetables

It is notoriously difficult to get children to eat healthy vegetables, all they want is sweet and fatty foods.

Okay all kids love sweet foods, but not eating vegetables is learned taste as much as eating them influenced by the Mother!

Controversial?

Research has shown that babies can acquire the taste of varied vegetables while still in the womb. What the Mother eats during this time has a great influence on the tastebuds of the unborn child. It learns from the flavours through the amniotic fluid surrounding it. Then once it is born further taste influencing is done through the Mothers milk and what she eats within her own diet.

Eat strong flavours during pregnancy and whilst feeding from the breast helps a child to acquire a more sophisticated taste preference, and with it a much healthier diet during it's life time.
