Lin Feng's daughter kitten was born at 38 weeks, and it was only 5 kilograms when she was born, so the whole family really cared for this child to because they thought she was too small and too thin.
, and Lin Feng’s breast milk is not enough, so she has always been fed with and . At 6 months, she simply gave her children milk powder.
found that the child's weight grew faster after drinking milk powder and his height grew taller. Grandma was very happy and gave her child full every day.
As a result, when the child is one year old, he goes to do child health care. doctor said that the child’s weight is growing a little fast, so he should control it and don’t give the child too much.
The doctor also said that if the child’s weight gains too fast, he will be prone to obesity when he grows up, which will also affect his height.

Lin Feng and grandma began to get nervous, but the child was very careful when he was young, and now he is used to eating big bites. He has a very good appetite and doesn't give her food at once. She is so hungry that she will definitely not want to.
Later Lin Feng thought that adults suggested eating more coarse grains, and that eating coarse grains can fill your stomach, so he often made some coarse grains for his children.
So the staple food for children is replaced with various coarse grain noodles or coarse grain rice , and it is also given to children, corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and sometimes some red beans, eyebrows beans, pea mung beans, , pea mung beans, , and porridge for children to eat.
Children seem to eat less, and their weight growth rate seems to be a little slow.
But in fact, Lin Feng’s approach is a bit unworthy of the loss. It is not recommended to give the child grains for his children to eat.
Chinese Nutrition Society Maternal and Child Nutrition Branch Chairman Wang Zhixu Recommended: There is no need to deliberately give coarse grains before the age of two.
Li Ling, chairman of the Maternal and Child Nutrition Branch of Shandong Nutrition Society, said: After the child is one year old, you can try eating a little whole wheat steamed bun or bread, but mixed grain rice must wait until the child is two years old before trying!
Why is it not recommended that children before the age of two eat coarse grains? For the sake of the health of the child
1. It will affect the child's gastrointestinal
If an adult's stomach is not good, it will be found that Eating coarse grains will cause excessive stomach acid or stomach discomfort.
Because the coarse fiber in coarse grains will increase gastrointestinal motility, which can easily lead to indigestion in children. Some coarse grains eaten by children are even prone to diarrhea.
2. Children who are two years old may affect nutritional intake of children with more coarse grains
If the child is not very fat, then if you give him coarse grains, it will occupy his stomach space, and feel fuller, which will affect the growth of the child's weight and height.
But if the child gains weight faster, you want him to control his weight, but it is not recommended to use coarse grains to control it.
Because children need a large amount of trace elements such as calcium, iron, and zinc during the growth process, but the phytic acid and oleic acid contained in coarse grains will affect the absorption of these nutrients, which is not conducive to the growth of the baby's height and is not conducive to the health of the child.
So nutrition experts recommend that children should not eat coarse grains before they are two years old.
The diet of children before the age of two must master the following five principles, otherwise they will be very tricky
Principle 1: Fine
Give children noodles or choose vegetables or fruits. Don’t choose with too much coarse fiber, give children a little more refined, otherwise the children will easily eat whatever they eat.
Principle 2: Clean and easy to clean
Children have weak gastrointestinal digestive ability before the age of two, and their liver and kidney excretion function is also relatively weak, so the food you choose for your child must be clean and easy to clean.
For example, peel off the skin when giving your child an apple, for example, when making vegetables for your child, you should also soak it slightly, and blanch it in boiling water to avoid pesticide residues.
Principle 3: High nutritional density
Children are a critical period of growth and development before the age of two, and their height and weight are growing very fast. Therefore, when choosing food for children, you must choose one with high nutritional value.
Don’t give your children rice soup or chicken soup, fish soup, bone soup and other foods with high water content and low nutritional value.
Principle 4: Try to add less sugar and salt
The latest version of " Chinese Resident Dietary Guidelines " recommends that children should give them pure natural foods as much as possible before they are two years old and avoid adding too many seasonings.
Because too many seasonings in will increase the burden on the child's liver and kidneys , and will also make the child develop the habit of eating heavy-tasting diets, which is not conducive to the child's health.
Principle 5: Food should be diversified
Children add complementary foods to the same before one year old, but after one year old, children should eat diversified food , and different foods provide children with different nutrition.
For example, when we are cooking for our children, we should not only make one vegetable a day, or use only one lean meat to steam the meat pie, but it is recommended to add various other ingredients.
For example, when steaming meat cakes, add carrots, add fungus , or add lotus root, etc., so that there are different foods in a dish, which can provide children with more nutrition.
