Health & Goodness

Wholesome Milky Goodness For Kids Every Day

We all need calcium as part of a healthy balanced diet, especially kids because it helps them develop strong bones and teeth. Dairy products, including milk, are a great source of calcium and other bone-friendly nutrients. NESQUIK also has added vitamin D, which is essential to help the body absorb calcium.

Here are some of the other nutrients in milk that makes it great for growing kids:

  • Protein helps the body grow and repair.
  • Calcium aids the development of bones and teeth.
  • Magnesium is important for bone development, healthy nerves and muscle contraction.
  • Phosphorus is essential for healthy bones and teeth.
  • Riboflavin is vital for healthy skin and releasing energy from food.
  • Vitamin B12 helps release energy.
  • Potassium is important for fluid balance, muscle contraction and healthy nerves.

Milk is also a source of fluid. Don't forget to use semi skimmed milk with your NESQUIK drink. It's lower in fat and saturated fat and still has the same rich level of calcium for growing kids' bones and teeth. Semi-skimmed milk can be used by kids from 2 years of age.

A Healthy Balance

A healthy, balanced diet is all about eating the right amount of a variety of foods from each of the main food groups every day. We all need 4 /5 portions of carbohydrate foods, 2/3 portions of protein foods, at least 5 portions of fruit and veg, and 3 portions of dairy products every day.

Fitting 3 portions of dairy products into your diet is easier than you might think. Why not try:
  • A glass of milk with NESQUIK at breakfast, with toast.
  • Fresh cold milk on your morning cereal.
  • A tasty cheese sandwich for lunch.
  • A yoghurt after your evening meal.

Easy tips to increase your fruit and vegetable intake:
  1. Try to start the day with fruit at breakfast – slice a banana, peach or pear over cereal, sprinkle on a tablespoon of dried fruit or have a glass of fruit juice.
  2. Fruit and vegetables don’t need to be eaten on their own to count – so throw a handful of vegetables into soups, stews and any other hot dishes.
  3. Add plenty of salad to sandwiches, or for a change stuff a pita bread with feta cheese, grapes and celery, diced chicken, grated carrot and raisins or tuna with sweetcorn and lettuce.
