The Visual MD Infant Nutrition Website Launches
Did you ever see a video that was so detailed, informative and helpful while looking so good that you were amazed? If you haven’t then keep reading because I’m going to tell you a website where you can find a bunch of them. The website I’m referring to is the Visual MD Infant Nutrition Center site.
About the website – Developed as a resource for Moms, the website brings together information from leading health centers and researchers across the country to explain how nutrition is crucial to infant development. How can you make sure that your newborn gets the nutrients she needs to ensure healthy growth through her first birthday? How do you keep her stomach from getting upset? What should you, as an expectant Mom, eat to ensure that you stay healthy as your infant grows? What vitamins do you need if you’re breastfeeding to ensure that you’re passing along the right nutrients to your infant?
Showcasing new data and 3-D images, the site lets you explore and learn the latest research findings through video, pictures, and graphics, in depth questions like why infant eyesight depends on getting enough DHA and what key nutrients contribute to the healthy growth of your child’s brain.
I remember having a lot of questions and worries as a pregnant woman and then a new mother. On more than one occasion I worried that I was not prepared for motherhood. Then TJ was born. I learned I could live with not having all of the answers as long as I could get answers I needed. The Visual MD Infant Nutrition Site is a site full of information and resources about your child’s health and development as impacted by nutrition. You have probably heard for years that good nutrition is important but maybe you didn’t understand why it is important. This site not only tells you why it’s important, it shows you with detailed graphic 3-D pictures and video.
The site is very well laid out and easy to navigate. There are fourteen sections dedicated to nutrition, food and digestion. The articles explain nutrition and it’s impact on other body systems such as the cardiac and respiratory systems, to name a few. All of the articles are from experts in their field. The site is sponsored by Enfamil but is not formula feeding specific. The site premiered with a live webcast that you can still view (click HERE). What I like best about the site is that it answers questions we all have or wonder about. The fact that I learned that I found most interesting is that “The total minimum energy cost of reproduction is 80,000 kcal and can be as high as 120,000 kcal for some women. In fast food terms, it’s roughly equivalent to 100 double-cheeseburgers, 200 small orders of fries and 90 hot fudge sundaes for good measure. And that’s just the energy bill at birth.” Wow!
Whether you’re expecting or already a parent you’ll find this website helpful, educational and informative.
