Kids: Trends & Health Ingredients
Healthy living is growing into a mainstream phenomenon, and the population of children
is no exception. With the fast-paced lives of parents, and the increasingly sedentary life
of kids, good nutrition is becoming a necessity for the health of our future generations.
Convenience is an impacting factor when determining a child’s diet, and with that comes
greater responsibility from the food and beverage industries. It is time to create food
and beverage products that not only taste good to a kid, but also help promote proper
nutrition. The children today are heavier than ever before, and as we are experiencing,
inappropriate weight gain can be a negative causing factor in many other areas of
health.
Companies need to provide nutritious choices with less sugar, less additives,
fortification of essential vitamins & minerals, and appropriate portions. Top health

immunity and proper sleeping habits. The following ingredients can be applied to
