Confused about Kid's Health?

Sam Wood - Tuesday, February 01, 2011

Children's Health, a new magazine as part of the "Men's Health" brand, will be released soon. A new and improved trend or more of the same fluff?

As parents or kids - how do you know what to believe when there is so much conflicting information out there? The answer unfortunately is you don't.

Trainers, teachers, coaches, nutritionists, psychologists, Mum, Dad, friends - everyone is a self proclaimed kids expert!

There are 3 tips however that will help:

  • Individualise - Every child is different so to get the right answer about your child you need to see a professional specifically about or even better with your child.
  • Keep it simple - Too much information or knowledge is just can be as damaging as complete ignorance.
  • Prioritise - Identify the most important 2 or 3 (max) things that your child needs to work on to improve their overall health and start there, (Lose weight, eat better, exercise more, run faster, improve posture, sharpen coordination whatever your child has the most trouble with should be their starting point.
