Kids at the age about three to five years would be very active, ask a lot. However, did you know that can be aware of brand of food is rinsing.
There is a new study in Ireland that shows us their knowledge brand of food will be able to influence food products demanded by them, said Mimi study leader Tatlow-Golden from the School of Psychology
at University College Dublin.
The study involved 172 children aged 3-5 years in Ireland. The parents were also asked to fill out questionnaires about family demographics, eating habits, as well as children's activities either alone watching tv or with a companion. In each school, the researcher suggests nine brand logos and product pictures of food.
Of the nine products, four are healthy food and the other five in the category of less healthy foods all of which are widely advertised in Ireland. Researchers asked children to answer the type of food that is tailored to its logo. Then they were asked to match with a given product image.
"The highest score for the question occurs at food brands in children aged three and five years. On average they can mention one-third the brand logo according to the type of food properly and two-thirds of the brand logo in accordance with the picture, "said Tatlow-Golden as quoted by Reuters.
However, in all ages of children better identify where food is less healthy. Researchers predict that the less healthy food knowledge pertaining to consumption of their parents, and less impacted ads on TV as well as their mother's level of education.

circulating on tv, 'said Sandra Jones, director of the Center for Health Initiatives at the University of Wollongong, Australia.
Therefore, Jones emphasized that parents can restrict consumption of less healthy foods and provide knowledge for their children which foods should be avoided or consumed, if only in small amounts.
