In Australia peoples generally spend their weekly household budget for food on the

It is essential for children to intake proper well balanced as well as healthy diet so that

of calcium which is not effective for various body part such as it impact negatively on nail, teeth
and bones. Due to high consumption of process as well as frozen food it will reduce density of
bone that leads to damage of skeletal and decay teeth. In addition to this, children or young
peoples who are having lack of balance diet and health life style face health issues and enhance
risk of asthma, high cholesterol, hypertension as well as after several time it will also start
affecting brain and other body parts (Wordell and et.al., 2012). There are some major health
issues which are occur due to consumption of frozen food as well as processed food are high
blood pressure, enhance fatigue, weakened immune system and damage of arteries. So it is
essential to avoid packaged, frozen and processed food in order to maintain healthy lifestyle and
this will also help in reducing chance of health illness.

 Food products must have very less amount of added sugar because it is harmful for the
children or young people.

 Product must contain less amount of saturated fats such as it must contain less then 3 G

 Person must select those product which is labelled with low saturated fat, low sugar and
low salt.
 It is also essential that dairy products and dairy substitutes that it contain at least 100 mg
of calcium at per 100 g.
 It is also necessary that products must contain high level of fibre such as product must
have more than 4 g finer per product (Niebylski and et.al., 2015). Along with this not
every product has fibre contain so in that mayo is not listed at every food product label.
There are several products and services which are consider as health products which help in
replacing frozen, processed and packaged food, some of them are given below:-
 Fruits like banana, apple, orange, grapes and many more because these are full of protein

Part 2
Conduct research and report on specific risk to Aboriginal as well as Torres strait Island Child
who are affected through underweight and nutrition deficiencies
For every individual proper nutritions is necessary because its deference leads to
improper health, serious disease and many more. It is necessary for child care centre to maintain
proper nutritions because it is important at each and every stage of fetus, infant and child. Along

with this it is essential that women take proper nutritions, vitamins and calcium during her
pregnancy because of she not take proper meal which is full of nutritions it will directly impact
on health of child (Kiefner and et.al., 2014). So it is essential to conduct proper check up of
pregnant lady in which in determining whether she is taking proper diet or not then care centre
design their diet chat or menu accordingly. Along with this it is also necessary that care centre
develop pregnant women food menu according to their requirement as well as it can be diverse
from women to women. This is so because requirement of nutritions, vitamins and calcium in
different from each other pregnant lady.
For pregnant women it is necessary to maintain and adopt their food menu in effective
manner because it will directly impact on baby and leads to low weight that can result in death in
its early life as well as ill health at infancy rate. Along with this, less weight is also cause due to
situation when baby get birth before its delivery date that is known as preterm delivery which is
dangerous for both mother as well as infant. Moreover due to intake of ineffective nutritions and
vitamins of mother or when delivery is done early then its date, then in these situation baby may
face issues of such as under developed organs and mental health issues (Grabenhorst and et.al.,
2013). There is also change occur in consequent metabolic which will impact on future health
and developing several disease like type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, mental issues and
many more.
There are various reasons which are related to which leads to intrauterine growth or
premature growth of baby such as intake of low mineral diet, malnutrition at the time of
pregnancy, improper gain of weight or loss of weight during pregnancy, low weight at the time
of gestation. Along with this it also include several other factors like social and economical
factor, maternal age, consumption of alcohol, cigarette smoking, family issues and many other
(Watt, 2012). As well as another main reason of low birthweight is due to reproductive history of
pregnant history. Such as in a family mother deliver her first baby pre maturity then it is chance
that she will deliver her next baby same i.e. preterm. But this situation is not possible at each and
every time because sometime baby take birth premature due to unhealthy condition of mother.
So it is essential for women to take proper nutrition, vitamins and calcium during pregnancy so
that baby take birth healthy and effectively.
Here Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children are also known as stolen generation
or stolen children at which children of are removed from their family due to mission of

Australian Federal and State government agencies and church as well as their act of consider
under their parliaments. It is also estimated by government of Australia that at several regions
one out of ten child or one of three child in indigenous Australian were forcefully taken from its
family as well as communities (Ogata and Hayes, 2014). This activity is mainly done in between
year 1910 and 1970. Due to this when children get away from their family and community they
didn't able to get proper food which contain appropriate amount of nutritions, vitamins and
calcium. This will leads to situation of underweight and nutritions deficiency in children as well
as young peoples. Along with this it will consider as major reason of occurrence of diseased like
type 2 diabetes, weakness, high blood pressure, enhance fatigue and many more as well as
sometime malnutrition also leads to death of a person or child.
So in order to protect these children government of Australia develop rules, regulation
and policies i.e. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Child Placement Principle that include its
prevention, partnership, placement, participation and connection. In this prevention is related to
children of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander have right that they can leave with their family
as well as communities. Partnership is related to respective type peoples or child have right to
take their decision, conduct assessment, intervention, placement and so on. Moreover in
respective topic protection is related to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children decision
must be protected by their family as well as community (Castonguay and et.al., 2013).
Connection is a situation in which respective children who are taken in care centre and away
from home must be supported.
