Is a healthy diet more important when you are young or when you are old?

Are there any reliable studies on this issue? On the one hand, I can see how a healthy diet when you are young might set in motion some long term positvie health benefits. On the other hand, it may be the case that children’s bodies are so efficient at squeezing the nutrition out of the foods that they eat that a child’s poor diet may not have the detrimental effects that an older person’s poor diet would. My 8 year old son’s diet is very limited, yet surprisingly, at least to me, he acts and looks very physically healthy.

    A healthy diet is important throughout your life. What you do and eat when you’re younger, may affect you later on in your 30’s, 40’s, etc. Many people and youngsters may look and feel very healthy however, it may not mean they are.
