Nutrition plays a foundational role in the child’s development during the first 1,000 days of life. The brain undergoes tremendous restructuring during the first two years of life. During infancy, the changes in body size are rapid and faster than any other time after birth. An infant’s weight triples and his or her height increases by 50% by the time they reach 1 year of age. Infant's weight quadruples and height increase by 75% as they reach 2 years of age. The diet of both mother and father will influence the diet behaviour of their child.
