We care about the health of their children and try to have only healthy foods in their diet. But many of those products, which are usually considered as such, in fact, dangerous to the child's body. What products should be minimized in the child's menu?
Almost from birth, the baby begins to get food that contains high amounts of sugar. It is, in consequence, is fraught with obesity, metabolic disorders, and even the development of diabetes. Also, the child is reduced sensitivity of taste buds and savory food seems tasteless to him. What are the products that we consider useful to actually harm the child's health?
Juice. We try to protect the child from sweet drinks and buy his industrial juice. But not much less sugar in a glass of juice - 5-6 teaspoons, and he is instantly absorbed into the blood, disrupting the healthy carbohydrate metabolism. Better Treat crumbs seasonal fruits and berries. You can cook for your baby from them compote or fruit drink.
Semolina. It contains a lot of carbohydrates and not enough vitamins and minerals needed for growth and proper development of the child. It is better to include in your baby menu useful porridge, rich in nutrients - for example, oat, buckwheat, barley.
Yogurt. Yogurt is useful when it comes to domestic dairy product production. As a rule, industrial yogurts no beneficial bacteria, but a lot of sugar, fat, calories and harmful additives, But really beneficial bacteria live is very small, and the shelf life of commercial yoghurts could be around months. Before you buy yogurt child read his composition.
Breakfast cereals. All possible flakes, balls and pads are considered to be useful for the child's breakfast. In fact, the amount of nutrients in them is minimal, but the sugar in excess. These are empty calories, which is very difficult to get enough of. It is better to cook baby porridge in the morning, add the nuts, berries and dried fruits, and it will be tasty and healthy alternative to store-bought cereals.
Grapes. The grapes have a lot of useful information, but it also should not be given to children under 2 years. Firstly, it is a heavy product for the digestive system of the child, it can cause bloating, cramps, diarrhea and discomfort. Secondly, a pipsqueak can simply choke.
Glazed curd. We all know that cheese is essential for children's food and believe glazed curds useful, but it is not so. In addition to the high sugar content, they include flavorings, colorings and preservatives, it is not permissible for baby food.
Honey. Honey is really useful, but it can not be included in the diet of children up to 2 years. This is due to the possible development of allergies, as well as the content in honey bacteria, which, because of the physiological characteristics of the organism, are dangerous to the child. In addition, the beneficial properties of honey are stored only if you do not expose it to heat treatment, honey should not be add hot tea, added to the dish for baking, otherwise the beneficial properties of honey result in harm to health.
