A balanced diet can positively affect young children throughout their lives. During their early development, children are highly impressionable, so it is particularly important to implement good routines and eating habits at an early age, so they carry it with them into adulthood. Children who do not get the proper nutrients during their early development may suffer from malnutrition and from several diseases. Some of the most common of which are obesity, osteoporosis, decreased muscle mass, changes in hair density and texture, fatigue, irritability, and type 2 diabetes.
The Abu Dhabi Early Childhood Authority (ECA) is a government entity, based in Abu Dhabi, that supports holistic early childhood development. We do this by developing policies and laws, informing decision-making through research and transforming behavior.
