Vinson can't say for sure why the coffee bean extract seems to help weight loss. He suspects one explanation is the unroasted beans' chlorogenic acid. Chlorogenic acid is a plant compound. It may have ''some effect on keeping down glucose absorption, which in turn helps reduce weight, Vinson says. Once coffee beans are roasted, the chlorogenic acid breaks down. None of the people in the study reported side effects, Vinson says.
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010, 2-year-olds need about 1,000 calories and 3-year-olds require 1,000 to 1,400 calories each day. The fat acceptable macronutrient distribution range for children ages 1 to 3 is 30 to 40 percent of their total calories.Fat provides nine calories per gram. Therefore, a toddler who consumes 1,000 calories would require 33 to 45 grams of fat each day.The Institute of Medicine recommends toddlers ages 1 to 3 consume 700 milligrams of omega-3s each day. Ask your pediatrician about purified omega-3 oils for children.herefore, a toddler who consumes 1,000 calories would require 33 to 45 grams of fat each day.

The Institute of Medicine recommends that kids age 1 to 8 get no more than 2,500 mg of calcium daily â that's roughly the equivalent of eight 8-ounce glasses of milk. While it's a good idea to keep an eye on how much calcium your child gets from her diet, it's unlikely that she will get too much calcium from food alone. Calcium supplements, on the other hand, can sometimes be a problem.
