Please join us in this podcast episode of Chatabout Children Podcast as we interview dietician Monica Kubizniak, where we will talk about food fuel for effective learning. In this episode you'll learn: Monica’s background and how she fell in love with nutrition and being a dietician from a lecture in college. The biggest challenge she experienced fuelling her 3 children. Why she advises parents against cooking more than one meal for families with more than one child. How she teaches and encourages her kids to listen to what their bodies are telling them — to cues — about fuelling and refuelling themselves that they will bring with them when they become adolescents. What are the best foods to give your preschool or school-age child for learning, concentration and attention. What’s a typical day like for a dietician with three kids.  The actual food she prepares for her kids’ breakfast, lunch, snack time and dinner. What are the common culprits that we find in the lunch box of a typical Australian child. How to cope with the imperfect days when you don’t have time to buy or prepare healthy food for your child. What everyone should know about the harmful effect of nitrates in your body and the healthier options available in the market.
