The development of food and drink products for children and
adolescents represents an expanding market sector, which has
received little attention in the existing literature. In
recognition of increasing concerns regarding diet and nutrition in
children and their potential impact on nutrition-related health
issues in later life, this book covers three broad aspects relating
to developing children's food products - nutrition and health,
children's food choices, and the design and testing of food and
drink products for children. Part one covers topical issues in
pre-adult nutrition and health, such as nutritional requirements,
fluid intake needs, diet and behaviour and growing 20th century
health problems such as childhood obesity and food allergies. Part
two then focuses on children's food choices, addressing food
promotion and food choice in children and strategies that can be
used to improve children's food choices both inside and outside of
the home. Finally, part three considers the design of food and
drink products for children, with an emphasis on working with
children and adolescents to design food and drink products, and how
best to undertake consumer and sensory testing with children. With
its team of expert international contributors, Developing
children's food products is an essential resource for both
academics and food industry professionals, offering particular
assistance to product developers working within the competitive
children's market.
