Fussy Eating is when someone (usually a toddler) refuses to try a new food at least 50% of the time. This means pretty much most toddlers go through a phase of fussy eating at least one point in time.
Dietitians can help parents of fussy eaters by:
- discussing strategies for introducing new foods
- discussing the child’s daily nutritional requirements
- ensuring a child’s diet is nourishing despite limited food choices.
