Absolutely trustworthy information

Everything on Nutrition4Kids is written and/or edited by medical professionals. All of our materials represent the best medical/scientific knowledge available today.

Qualified, expert advice

Our mission is to help parents create a Healthy Lifestyle for a Lifetime© for their children. That means not only managing any medical conditions they may have, but choosing the foods that will help achieve that lifestyle. So from breast feeding, to introducing solid foods, to allergies, GI issues and other medical conditions, to getting enough vitamins, fiber and other foods into your kids, to feeding young athletes or wheelchair and bed-bound kids, Nutrition4Kids provides the information you need to feed your kids well.

Accurate food data and labels customized for the kid you are feeding

Most food labels required by the government are based on a 2000 calorie-a-day diet for an adult. Kids have much different calorie needs based on their age and health level. Also, the amount of protein, fat, fiber and vitamins that kids need are very different than those listed on those 2000 calorie labels. We let you build a label that's accurate for your kid from the USDA database. We also provide labels for thousands and thousands of packaged food products and restaurant menu items.

Updates

Feeding a kid a healthy diet is a full time job. Keeping up with the developments in medicine and food science is a full time job. (Oh, and your actual full time job is a full time job.) Let us help keep you up to date on medical and food science developments relevant to the kid you are feeding. Just tell us about who you are feeding, and we'll send you all relevant articles and blogs we publish.

Nutrition4Kids was created to offer doctors and other medical professionals an absolutely safe place to send their patients online to learn more about nutrition and their medical conditions.
