gains 4 to 5 pounds each year. Proper nutrition and opportunities
to play and be physically active are critical to ensuring
your child grows properly, learns to enjoy nutritious foods,
and adopts healthy behaviors for maximum development and
lifelong health.
This publication covers various topics of interest to parents
and caregivers of young children and gives an overview of
optimal feeding practices. |

Healthy Weights for Healthy Kids: What Is a Healthy Weight? | There is no one healthy weight for all children. Children
come in different sizes and shapes. Some children
are naturally petite. Others have bigger builds,
larger bones, or greater muscle mass that can result in a
heavier weight. They also grow at different rates. Any
weight that supports growth, learning, development, fitness,
and well-being can be a healthy weight. |

A Longer Marketing Life for Blackberry and Raspberry Fruit | Caneberries, which include blackberries and raspberries,
must be picked when the berries are ripe or
nearly ripe to ensure quality. Their thin fruit skin, high
respiration rate, and high ethylene production make
these berries extremely susceptible to postharvest
losses. Although both raspberries and blackberries are
considered “soft” fruits, raspberries are slightly more
perishable in nature. The raspberry fruit is susceptible
to greater moisture loss and fungal infection because
of its lack of an outer protective covering (cuticle) and
the fact that the raspberry fruit is left with a cavity in
the center when detached from the plant. |

Food Allergen Labeling and HACCP Control for the Seafood Industry: Undeclared Food Allergens and Their Impact on U.S. Consumers | According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
as many as 11 million Americans have food
allergies. A food allergy can trigger symptoms ranging
from a tingling mouth, swelling of the tongue and
throat, hives, and abdominal cramps to anaphylaxis
and — in severe cases — death (CDC 2012). Consumers
with known allergies must read labels to identify
allergenic foods or ingredients on packaged products
so they can more easily avoid them. |

IMPORTANT FACTS About the Safety of Unpasteurized (Raw) Milk | The majority of the milk and dairy products sold in the United States are pasteurized, which
means they go through a heat process that kills harmful bacteria (e.g., Salmonella, E. coli,
Campylobacter, etc.) that can be found in unpasteurized (raw) milk. Pasteurization not only
improves the safety of the milk but also lengthens its shelf life. |

Understanding and Managing Food Allergies | Food allergies affect approximately 11 percent of adults and approximately 8 percent of children in the United States. Over the last decade, the number of young people with food allergies has increased. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported an increase in food allergies in children of 50% from 1997 to 2011. Food allergies can be serious and life-threatening; severe reactions kill 100 to 200 Americans per year (University of Nebraska-Lincoln, 2023). The risk of accidental exposure to foods can be reduced if physicians, parents, child care providers, and teachers work to minimize risks and provide a safe environment for children with food allergies. This publication provides general information and guidelines to manage food allergies at home, schools, day care centers, and camps. |
