Description

Do you want to learn more about the recent research by the OzFITs team on iron intake and dietary modelling? Tune into this intriguing conversation with Dr Tim Green as we explore the study findings which revealed 75% of infants (aged 6-12 months) and 25% of toddlers have inadequate iron intake. Tim shares how iron-fortified infant cereals could be a simple way to reduce the prevalence of iron inadequacy. Tim covers other interesting points including how iron-fortified infant cereals didn’t displace other nutrients and the importance of providing infants and toddlers with a variety of iron-rich foods to ensure they are exposed to different tastes and textures.  For the shownotes: https://dietitianconnection.com/podcasts/reducing-prevalence-iron-inadequacy-infants-toddlers/  This podcast is not, and is not intended to be, medical advice, which should be tailored to your individual circumstances.
