The What, How and Ifs of Optimizing Early Childhood Growth and Long-Term Outcomes, Part Two
- Registration Closed
Understanding normal childhood growth is essential for quick recognition and intervention for deviations in growth and nutrient intake associated with long-term risk for disease and poor health. Therefore, the ‘what, how, and ifs of optimizing childhood growth and long-term outcomes’ webinar series addresses the knowledge and practice gaps about nutrient and non-nutrient factors essential for optimizing long-term health outcomes.
The first webinar in August 2022 addressed the early life nutritional factors that promote healthy growth, the development of a microbiome associated with optimized long-term health, and the recognition of early childhood growth patterns related to long-term risk for overweight and obesity. This Part Two webinar focuses on a nutritional assessment approach that quickly recognizes disease, nutritional management of childhood feeding disorders, and principles and strategies for weaning children from dependence on tube feeds.
