The current state of parent feeding behavior, child eating behavior, and nutrition intake in young children with type 1 diabetes.

Many parents of young children with T1D report problem child eating behaviors. Further, a significant number of young children are not meeting glycemic, nutritional, or BMI guidelines for T1D. Routine screening for dietary difficulties in young children is warranted. Future research should aim to examine interventions targeting families with young children not meeting nutrition, glycemic, or BMI guidelines.
