When babies are able to eat complementary foods, parents will definitely give them some fruits and vegetables, such as locally abundant fruits or seasonal fruits. Some parents may like to eat loquat, wondering if babies can also eat loquat. So, can babies eat loquat?
1. Babies can eat loquat, but it is only for babies over one year old. If babies are under one year old, they cannot eat loquat. Babies over one year old can eat a small amount of loquat, but they should start eating a little bit and observe whether there is any allergy. If there is no allergy, they can be fed loquat. When babies first start eating, it is best to make loquat puree for them to eat.
2. Moreover, loquat contains various elements necessary for the growth of babies, making it a very nutritious fruit. It can help babies develop stronger physical fitness, promote digestion and absorption, quench thirst and cool down in summer. Eating loquat can also relieve cough, moisten lungs, clear heat, and promote diuresis. Therefore, if babies have cough, loquat can be made into loquat water for them to drink.
3. Although loquat has many benefits, it is also important to consume it in moderation because loquat is a cold food and eating too much is not conducive to the health of the baby. Therefore, it is important not to eat too much, as it may cause the baby to produce phlegm or trigger phlegm heat. Therefore, do not eat too much at the last time, only 1 to 2 pieces are enough each time. At the same time, when making loquat water for the baby, do not add too many loquat, about half a piece is enough.
