Nutritional interventions for pediatric eating disorders

Nutritional interventions for pediatric eating disorders focus on restoring healthy eating habits and promoting nutritional balance. This may involve working with a registered dietitian to create individualized meal plans that provide essential nutrients and support physical growth. Strategies might include gradually reintroducing regular meals and snacks, educating families about balanced diets, and addressing specific food aversions or fears. The goal is to help children develop a positive relationship with food, support their physical health, and improve their overall well-being, while also offering psychological support to address any underlying emotional concerns.
