Your preschooler\u2019s body requires a diet with the proper amount of nutrients in order to keep their cells and organs \u2013 including the brain \u2013 healthy. Proper nutrition can benefit the brain in several positive ways, and a healthy, growing brain can help your child succeed in preschool.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A healthy diet can increase the production of new neurons. <\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neurons communicate with other cells in the brain and throughout the body. Messages sent by the brain not only allow your child to perform physical tasks like moving around, but they also help them to perform mental tasks like thinking, learning, remembering, imagining, and concentrating. Therefore, a problem that affects the brain can change their thinking, emotions, or behaviors. On the other hand, a diet that contains omega-3 fatty acids improves the formation of neurons and leads to improved thinking, attention, and memory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A well-balanced diet has been linked to academic success. <\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/healthyschools\/health_and_academics\/pdf\/factsheetDietaryBehaviors.pdf\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Youth Risk Behavior Survey<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, children that eat breakfast every day, eat at least one or more servings of fruit, vegetables, and milk each day, and avoid drinking soda are more likely to have A\u2019s on their report cards. While preschoolers may not earn letter grades, they are building the foundation for future academic success!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your preschooler\u2019s brain needs the proper fuel. <\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The brain is always &#8220;on.&#8221; It works hard every day all day taking care of all of the body\u2019s functions. It even works while you sleep! This means the brain requires a constant supply of fuel, and that fuel comes from the foods you eat.\u00a0 In other words, what you eat directly affects the structure and function of your brain. For the best success in school, your preschooler needs quality foods that contain lots of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that will nourish the brain. Avoid foods that contain a high amount of sugar, fat, or processed carbohydrates. These unhealthy foods can have an effect on physical and mental health and limit academic success.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you enjoyed this blog, please take a look at our school\u2019s<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/new-territory-telfair\/blog\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blog page<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
