"The Developmental Origin of Health and Disease" theory proposes that the growth and development state supported by the nutritional environment in the early stage of life will have a long-term impact on long-term health through the performance of genetic-based regulatory effects.
Therefore, infancy and toddlers, we must lay a solid foundation for children's health, and feeding children is very important .
htmlBefore the age of 03, it is not only a period of rapid development of the child's brain, but also a critical period for laying the foundation for the physical fitness and health of the child throughout his life.But children's complementary food problems are often a headache for mothers.
is not only a novice mother, but also a grandparent and grandparents with rich cooking experience sometimes find it difficult to make reasonable, nutritious and healthy complementary foods for their children. Why do you say so?
Because many new mothers are the same as me, they have never cooked much, and they are even more confused when they make complementary foods.
The complementary foods made by grandparents and grandparents for their children are also very limited, usually noodles, porridge, steamed buns, etc. that are not nutritious.
This causes many babies to have problems with complementary food feeding.
What will happen if children don’t eat complementary food well?
1. It affects the child's growth.
Children's supplementary foods are not good, and their nutrition cannot keep up with it, which directly affects the child's height growth.
2. It affects the development of children's brain.
0 to 3-year-old children are at the peak of brain development. Children do not eat good complementary food and insufficient nutritional intake, which directly affects the development of children's brain cells.
3. Influence children's immunity.
Children's supplementary foods are not good, and they are thin or fat, which will make the child's immunity lower and they like to get sick.
4. It affects the development of children's body organs, such as growing double-row teeth.
Sometimes parents cannot grasp what kind of complementary foods older children should eat .
For example, my neighbor's kids are fragrant. Xiangxiang was always taken care of by her grandmother. When she was over 2 years old, she only ate porridge, vegetable puree, fruit puree, etc. every day. Grandma will not change to make complementary foods in more ways.
It is unscientific for children to eat complementary foods. If they do not eat the corresponding complementary foods according to the corresponding month, it may cause the complementary foods that children eat for a long time to be too soft and fine, which will have an adverse impact on the development of the child's body organs.
As a result, Xiangxiang's chewing ability is very poor, and her mouth and speech are not very clear. is . is 6 years old and has double rows of teeth. Double rows of teeth are the permanent teeth. is the permanent teeth do not fall off. The permanent teeth drill out from the inside of the primary teeth, and double rows of teeth appear.
The doctor told Xiangxiang's mother that the child has eaten too finely since he was eating complementary food, which leads to poor teeth development.
Eating complementary food is so important, so what should we pay attention to when feeding complementary food to children?
1. The age for children to add complementary food is generally after the child is 6 months old, but it also depends on the actual situation.
Add complementary food to your child. Generally, the child is half a year old and slowly adds it to your child from 7 months old, but this time point is not absolute.
Usually when the child reaches 5 or 6 months, parents can deliberately let the child play while the adults eat, so that the child will gradually become interested in food.
If the child is obviously enthusiastic about hot things at 5 or 6 months, for example, when he sees adults smacking his lips or reaching out to ask for it, parents can also try to add a small amount of complementary food to their children in May or June, but parents must remember that adding complementary food to their children at the earliest cannot be 4 months earlier than the child's age, and try not to be later than 8 months.
My daughter gradually added complementary food to her since she was 7 months old, and she was very adaptable to eating complementary food.
The first bite of complementary food my daughter eats is high-speed rail rice noodles, which is also the choice of most parents. is relatively safe and easy to digest, and is not easy to cause allergies or digestive problems in children.
At the beginning, add complementary food to your child, so that it is easier for children to eat and digest.
My daughter's first bite of fruit was banana puree. It was easy to make with a grinding bowl. She loved it very much. I remember she shouted happily and had a very happy meal.
: To give your child complementary food, you should try it. At the beginning, you need a small amount, which is easy to chew and digest. should also pay attention to whether the child is allergic to foods . After observing for three or five days, you should confirm that the child is not allergic to this type of food, add a new type of complementary food to the child.
If the child does not accept the taste of a certain complementary food, parents do not need to force it. After a while, parents will try it.
2. Adding complementary food to children follows the principles of from simple to complex, from small to many, from thin to thick, from thin to thick, from thin to thick.
You should not be anxious to add complementary food to your children. You should proceed step by step and pay attention to nutritional matching.
After adding complementary food to your child, you should closely observe the child's bowel movements and skin condition to see if the child is adapted to the added complementary foods.
When you first add complementary foods to your children, you can be less, thinner and thinner, so that the children can accept it, digest it, chew it, and it is not easy to get choked.
As children grow older, complementary foods can gradually become more complex, more thicker, and thicker, exercising their chewing ability and allowing children to absorb a variety of nutrients as much as possible.
It is worth noting that when children eat complementary food, they must accompany their children throughout the process to prevent them from being choked. Safety and health are always the first priority.
3. Within one year old, some complementary foods cannot be added.
Babys within one year old are still relatively tender in their digestive system, and some complementary foods cannot be eaten by the baby.
like salt, sugar, honey, various seasonings , don't add it to your baby within one year.
egg white protein molecule is small, which can easily cause allergies in the baby. Do not give your child . Parents can pick out the yolks of boiled eggs, grind them into a paste with warm water, and let their children eat them, but do not give egg whites to babies within one year old.
Crusted seafood can easily cause allergies in the baby, so it is best not to let babies within one year old eat it.
Some fruits, , such as mango, pineapple, , kiwi fruit, , peaches can easily cause skin allergies for babies. , babies within one year old should be careful when eating.
juice sugar concentration is too high, which will make the baby sweet. Try not to add it within one year.
Minite water contains mineral , which will increase the burden on the baby's stomach and intestines. Babies within one year old should not drink mineral water. It is best for babies to drink warm boiled water.
Babies within one year old should not drink fresh milk, because the baby is still young and difficult to digest.
Tea, pickled food should not be given to babies within one year old.
Other s such as peppers, persimmons, peeled eggs, crabs, beans, etc. are not suitable for babies to eat within one year.
4. Children should have a sense of ritual when eating, and don’t be afraid that the children will get too dirty.
Starting from the time children eat complementary foods, they must establish a sense of ritual for children to eat, and do not let their children eat while playing.
Prepare the baby's dining table, chairs, bibs, rice bowls and spoons for the child, and try to let the child eat by himself.
Don’t be afraid that the child will grab food with his hands at the beginning, which will make the face, body, and dining tables and chairs full of food. Every child has to go through this process. The child can also exercise the fine movements of his hands with his hands, and gradually the child can learn to use spoons and chopsticks.
When a baby is eating, parents should encourage each other and do not blame the baby for eating too dirty, so as not to dispel the baby's enthusiasm for eating independently.
Children's eating skills and hygiene can be taught slowly. This requires a process. Gradually, the baby will learn to eat a good meal cleanly and hygienically.
Children should focus on their meals and not let their children eat while eating, especially they should not let their children run and jump while eating, because the baby is prone to choking by food, which is very dangerous.
A child with good eating habits will also have a strong advantage after going to kindergarten, and the issue of eating will not worry parents and teachers.
Regarding the skills and methods of making complementary food for children, my daughter used a book with a very comprehensive knowledge of "What to Eat Complementary Food Every Week".
The author of this book is nutritionist Liu Changwei, famous parenting expert Zhang Silai recommendation, full color printing, pictures and texts.
Why can this book solve the problem of complementary food for children?
Because the book used a lot of space to introduce the knowledge of adding complementary food to children, , such as the basic principles of adding complementary food to babies, misunderstandings about adding complementary food that parents are prone to entering, problems that are prone to occur in the process of adding complementary food, baby supplementary food equipment required, etc. allows parents to have a comprehensive and thorough understanding of the knowledge of adding complementary foods to their children.
"What to eat for complementary food every week" According to the age of the child's complementary food, the baby will eat one by one in detail. Parents are very worried. As long as they follow this book, the child can eat nutritionally balanced and delicious complementary food.
For example, the broccoli beef puree and walnut and red date puree for children in the third week of 8 months of age.
Of course, walnut kernels need to be ground into powder with a cooking machine, and the red dates need to be steamed, peeled, and pressed into a paste.
These complementary food recipes are very reasonable in nutritional matching, which is conducive to the development of the child's brain and body growth.
htmlBaby's diet after the age of 21 has gradually transitioned to adults, and the recipes have also changed.
