Šest savjeta za davanje ulja jetre bakalara bebi

Znate da je ulje jetre bakalara izvrsno za razvoj vaše bebe. No lakše je reći nego učiniti djetetu dati ulje jetre bakalara. Ali možda je lakše nego što mislite. Evo šest savjeta koji djeluju.

1. Izbjegavajte prolijevanje po odjeći

Dajte bebama ulje jetre bakalara na stolu za prematanje, u kupaonici ili u drugim situacijama kada su gole. Na ovaj način nije važno ako se prolijevaju i povrate, a izbjegavate teške mrlje. Možda se bebi može dopustiti da sama drži žlicu? To je prava poslastica!

2. Trik sa špricom

Navucite ulje jetre bakalara u plastičnu štrcaljku (naravno, bez igle) i nježno ga pustite u bebina usta. Ili pustite bebu da siše štrcaljku. Moller’s Easy Cod Liver Oil izvrstan je alat dostupan u svakoj ljekarni. To je neka vrsta štrcaljke koja omogućuje da ulje jetre bakalara sklizne niz bebino grlo.

3. Odvratite im pažnju

Trik sa skrivanjem i pokazivanjem, plišani medvjedići koji pričaju, brrrm brrrm automobil … postoje beskrajne mogućnosti za odvraćanje pažnje beba dok im se daje ulje jetre bakalara. Gurnite žlicu dok se beba smije i velike su šanse da će ulje progutati bez ljutnje.

4. Pretvarajte se da ih neće dobiti

Obrnuta psihologija izvrsno djeluje na malu djecu. Neka ostatak obitelji najprije uzme ulje jetre bakalara, a zatim dajte svom malom djetetu žlicu.

5. Neka bude ugodno

Učinite dnevnu dozu ulja jetre bakalara redovnom rutinom i kombinirajte je s aktivnošću u kojoj vaša beba uživa. Zagrlite i igrajte se s bebom i recite kako se dobro provodite i koliko je dobro ulje jetre bakalara. Iako beba možda još ne razumije riječi, ona tumači izgled i ton vašeg glasa i povezat će dobivanje ulja jetre bakalara s nečim lijepim.

6. Riješite se vlastite fobije od ulja jetre bakalara

Neki od nas imaju predrasude prema ulju jetre bakalara. Možda se sjećamo da ima loš okus i miris i ne želimo svojoj djeci nametati nešto što nam se ne sviđa. Međutim, posljednjih godina okus ulja jetre bakalara postao je znatno blaži. Većina beba je u redu s uljem jetre bakalara. Nekima se čak i sviđa. Ali upamtite da ga treba držati u hladnjaku i ne smije biti toliko star da užegne i ima loš okus.

What is good health?

Body changes in later life call for changes in your diet

Do you have a good lifestyle?

Lifestyle simply means the way in which you live. Health and lifestyle go hand in hand. You might feel you have a good lifestyle if you are physically active, eat healthily and generally experience a sense of wellbeing. Conversely, if you want good health you should also have a good lifestyle.

Physical activity is the major contributor to a good lifestyle, but diet, drugs, stress, sleep and social conditions are also play an important role. Being able to use the body properly to avoid injury also affects lifestyle. Physical activity can also prevent depression and help you to recover more quickly from mental illness, both of which obviously affect your lifestyle.

How does the aging process affect your immune system?

Diet can be a difficult topic for many. Perhaps you eat too much or too little or maybe you find it hard to know what foods to combine to have a balanced diet. It’s also important to eat food that contains important vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre, omega-3 and antioxidants. On top of all this, you also need to get enough energy, protein and the correct fatty acids. The requirement for these nutrients changes throughout your life. When you are older you also have different requirements than children and younger adults. Women also have different requirements than men. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers also have special requirements.

When you get older, you lose muscle mass and your body requires less energy and therefore less food. You may lead a less active life than you did before, which is why you require less food. However, your need for minerals, vitamins and other nutrients remains the same. Of course, there are plenty of healthy and active older people, but when you reach 70 to 80 years of age, it’s easier to become ill, especially during flu season.

Some steps you can take to improve your lifestyle and health are to:

eat a healthy and varied diet
stay active
watch your weight
avoid too much alcohol and don’t smoke
get enough sleep
think positive
practise good hygiene

What is good quality of life?

The World Health Organisation (WHO) defines quality of life as a state where the individual can realise their potential, cope with normal stressful situations, work in a rewarding and positive way, and be able to contribute to others and society.

Quality of life is a wide and somewhat diffuse concept that includes joy in, and a desire for, life. These are values that are rather felt than measured, which in turn are based on personal environment and choices. Quality of life doesn’t necessarily depend on being healthy or sick. It’s the moments between worries, sorrows, problems and ailments that matter. For example, if you have a chronic illness, a feeling of mastery can be important when talking about quality of life.

To sum up, quality of life is a combination of health, lifestyle, networks and social support. It’s about experiencing joy, meaning in life, satisfaction, security and a sense of belonging, as well as being able to use your strengths. It’s also about feeling interest in life, coping with everyday situations and a being committed to something or someone. If you have good quality of life, you will be able to cope better with the inevitable stressful situations in life.
