Q.

Hi my daughter prefers rice for lunch and dinner most days and we usually cook India gate classic, so is it healthy to give basmati rice on a daily basis… though she is been having it for last 3 years but I just want to know if it is fine to continue with basmati

A. yes, it's fine to give basmati. Give well balanced diet including all five healthy food groups: vegetables, fruit, grain foods, dairy and protein. Avoid foods high in salt, saturated fat and sugar, foods low in fibre and nutrients, and drinks with caffeine or lots of sugar.

A. hi yes ,it is ok. but it would be better to prefer unpolished rice . as they contain more vitamin B12 and other nutrients. please offer variety of food items from different food groups like vegetables, fruit, pulses, dairy products etc also so you Child can get all essential nutrients in adequate quantities too.
