great advocacy event! It’s important to educate how moms can cope with kids who are picky eaters. Kids, nowadays, get exposed to more types of unhealthy food like junk foods, and would start to prefer these over other food that are ideal for his age. Picky eating can be ended by better equipping and educating parents and guardians on the issue.
Yes that is why I really attended this event so I can learn other ways or techniques to cope with Diet Shift that my little boy is experiencing right now.
What habits kids develop at this stage of development can stay with them for their whole life! This is quite a challenge for parents, as per personal experience.
Diet Shift is a true challenge for parents. It is a phase where we as parents extend our patience to monitor our child’s health for his good development and proper nutrition.
Ensuring the optimum health of kids is a real challenge for parents. It is a good thing that there are many products available that can help them do their job of taking care of children well.
I experience that diet shift now that my son is turning 5 y.o . He likes to drink soda and some junk food . Good thign , I still gives him a glass of milk everyday.
My toddler is beginning to show signs of being a picky eater himself and reading this post can help me a lot in getting his diet on the right track. Thanks for this.
Quite an interesting article! My son is 1 year and 3 months old but prefers cerelac. He actually screams when we try to give him rice – even when we used the blender for it to mimic the consistency of the cereal. If we manage to let him eat even just a spoonful, he vomits everything he ate! Sigh.
This can be a challenge – not just diet shift. Thanks for the info, though. 🙂
Way to go Mommy Joy I have been there when my son is about 1 year-old and what I did is to show him how I eat the fruits and veggies. With rice at the wet market we requested to grind it and we mix it with regular meals when cooking like Sinigang na baboy and isda. Aqiva is for four years old and up- I am thankful that my son (4 years old now) liked it when I replace his milk brand 8 months ago.
Diet shift sometimes becomes an agony for us parents due to food preferences as well and when they get introduced to different food tastes, then they become picky.
Good thing that they have been supportive to moms and it is not just about milk because they shared cool and I think effective ways to cope with Diet Shift.
If you want your kids to eat healthy, you really have to make an effort to train them while they are still young. Me and my younger siblings have very different eating habits. I grew up eating fish while he grew up eating Jollibee. Supplements may be a good alternative to healthy eating but it’s still the parents’ responsibility to teach their kids to eat the proper kinds of food because you can’t rely on milk forever.
This is a very helpful event for mothers since kids shifting diets can really bother their health.
Yes very helpful and moms can apply some techniques here for Diet Shift
Mikee Cojuanco is also an excellent ambassador for kids as she is an exemplary athlete and mom.
Mikee is very simple and she shared her real mommy experience about Diet shift with her four year-old son.

I’d be glad to recommend this to my cousin for her 2-year-old child.
Hi,
According to the label, AQIVA is for four years old and up.
It has been quite a while since I last saw Mikee on TV or in any event.
For the diet shift, I think that consulting with a nutritionist before embarking on the change will be best.
So right Rochkirstin. I learned so much from the nutrition and pediatrics expert who’s been panelist in the Aqiva food talk.
Diet shift sometimes becomes an agony for us parents due to food preferences as well and when they get introduced to different food tastes, then they become picky.
So true sometimes I felt it is an agony and the only solution is to find ways and be patient in introducing healthy foods to our kids.
The vain of many mothers, how to cope up with their kids Diet shift. good thing, Wyeth introduces a healthy diet to addressed the issue.
Good thing that they have been supportive to moms and it is not just about milk because they shared cool and I think effective ways to cope with Diet Shift.
AQIVA’s advocacy is really helpful for children especially kids these days only love sweets and candies.
I have a 4 year old and it is such a struggle to get her to eat! I don’t think I have enough energy to create those fun meals….LOL!
If you want your kids to eat healthy, you really have to make an effort to train them while they are still young. Me and my younger siblings have very different eating habits.

Exactly! It is the responsibility of the parents to lead in teaching their child to eat proper food with good nutrition.
very nice brand of milk, Wyeth Philippines is really looking after the health and nutrition of young children.
I still don’t have a baby but if ever i have one, i would be considering this milk.
I love how the food was creatively prepared. This will help kids to enjoy their meals! 🙂
Yes. Sometimes I tried to be artistic in preparing meals and my son really loved it. 🙂
It’s really tricky to get the child’s attention during mealtime. Parents should unleash their creativity when preparing meals! 🙂
It would be tough, but worth every effort. 🙂
Yes Lily it is always worth the effort especially if you see your child healthy and happy.
I learned a lot during that event and now I can a make a few sandwiches that my kids would enjoy eating 🙂
Same here Mommy Peh and I will apply what I’ve learned from the AQIVA food talk. 🙂
I’m also having problems feeding my 2 year old. Although it’s time-consuming, making meals fun by combining shapes and colors might be effective.
Thanks a lot for sharing! This is very helpful. Will serve as our guides on jow to deal with diet shift.
