Dietitian Nutritionist Melbourne

Are you confused by the amount of information there is on nutrition? Do you find that you hear one piece of advice one day and its opposite the next? There is so much conflicting information on nutrition, it’s no wonder parents are confused yet under so much pressure to “feed right”. There lies some of the difficulties of parenting a fussy eater. Parents start with the best feeding intentions, however fussy eating challenges create such difficulties and conflict that with time parents often give up. It becomes a difficult issue to talk about with family, friends or professionals, and parents report a lack of understanding, a lack of compassion, as their concerns are dismissed and their parenting is criticised.
