Is your child getting enough iron, zinc, and vitamin E? Studies show that many kids fall below the recommended levels when it comes to those nutrients. As your child enters his second year of life, adult foods start to replace breast milk and formula.
During this period, it is important to graduate to a nutrient-rich diet as the percentage of calories from milk and formula rapidly declines. Your child's diet should include foods such as cereals that contain iron and vitamin E, meat for iron and zinc, and dairy products that also contribute to zinc intake.
