Feed Them Well: A Guide to Raising Healthy, Confident Eaters for Life

From dietician and creator of @kids.eat.in.color comes a guide to help parents cut through the noise and empower kids to have a healthy relationship with food and their bodies for a lifetime.

We live at a time when one of the most basic functions of being human--eating --is incredibly confusing. From clickbait headlines to the inescapability of processed foods--feeding ourselves well has never been harder.

And then there are our kids.

Today's generation is growing up in a dietary landscape marked by slippery slopes. Diet culture, body image, misinformation--for many parents, feeding their kids is more stressful than feeding themselves. At the heart of every parent's struggle is the dual agenda of teaching good nutrition and instilling body positivity.

In Feed Them Well, dietician Jennifer Anderson offers parents a definitive framework to support their kids' physical and mental health. Raising body-positive, healthy, nutritionally fluent kids requires parents who maintain a consistent approach to eating at home. The "rules" will look a little bit different in everyone's household, but Anderson addresses the questions parents navigate every day: How can I increase the variety of what they eat? Is it bad to make them finish a plate? What if they hate vegetables?

Feed Them Well will do for kids' nutrition what The Anxious Generation did for the other daily pain point--and high-stakes issue--of modern parenting, providing both a big idea and perspective shift and an actionable, evidence-based framework parents can turn to time and again. Feed Them Well is poised to become a classic of modern parenting literature.
