How Poor Nutrition Affects your Child’s Mental Health
Recent studies have shown that one in six children aged 8 -14 years old in Australia are going to school or bed hungry. This lack of nutrition in a young child’s diet has been linked to causing a risk of Mental Health and could actually be harming a child’s long-term wellbeing.
Earlier, we were joined by Dr Natalie Parletta, Senior Research Fellow in Nutrition, mental and physical health from the University of South Australia to discuss more about this issue and how we can all help children in these situations.
