First 1,000 days
The first 1000 days is a concept in child development that public health interventions are which support children during their first 1000 days of life are especially effective.
Good nutrition at this time affects many health outcomes.[1][2][3][4] There are various risk factors in the first 1000 days which, if present, are predictors of later obesity.[5][6][7]
Children establish many of their lifetime epigenetic characteristics in their first 1000 days.[8]
There are other health recommendations for what to do after the first 1000 days.[9]
