Healthy eating for children

Thu, Apr 09, 2015

Honor Geraghty, nutritional therapist and graduate of CNM, believes that it is imperative to teach your children healthy eating habits now, so that you will perpetuate a healthy lifestyle for them well into their later years.

“Children require a wide range of vitamins and minerals to support their health while they are growing. This is why it is paramount that they consume a diet rich in fruit, vegetables, and other nutrient dense foods. I work with kids a lot in my clinic and believe successful outcomes are as a result of getting the children involved, stimulating their interest. Let the child choose a new vegetable every week and together come up with a recipe for it. It is all about using your imagination and being creative to make food more exciting.

Thu, Mar 19, 2015

Cancer affects a whole family, not just the person who is ill. Many parents dealing with a cancer diagnosis acknowledge they do not know how to talk to their children about cancer.
