At no point in life is nutrition more important than in childhood. Children have a remarkable ability to flourish in a healthy environment. Like a bulb waiting to peek out of the earth, a child is a world of possibilities just waiting to grow. Given proper care and nourishment, you'll see beautiful results.
Most infants double their birth weight in six months and triple it in a year.
To support this growth, babies require a large amount of calories, consumed frequently throughout the day. Infants who receive adequate nutrition will grow normally and tackle developmental milestones in stride. Unfortunately, not every baby is nourished appropriately. Hungry babies do not grow to their full potential. If nutrition therapy is started soon enough, catch up growth can be achieved, but the loss of height may never be regained.
