Tofu has a soft and tender taste, is easy to digest, and has high nutritional value, so many parents and friends will give their babies tofu, such as braised tofu, fried tofu, crucian carp tofu soup, etc. However, some parents and friends are worried that it's not good for their babies to eat too much tofu. So, can babies eat too much tofu?
Babies are not suitable to eat too much tofu because tofu contains a lot of purines, and eating too much can easily lead to high uric acid levels. The baby's digestive system is not yet fully developed, and soy products are not easy to digest, which may lead to symptoms of bloating. In addition, tofu also contains other additives, so babies are not very suitable for eating tofu.
Babies can generally add complementary foods around 4 months. For babies who have just added complementary foods, it is more suitable to eat baby Rice noodles. After the baby's stomach and intestines adapt, they can gradually add vegetables, juice, fish and other complementary foods. When adding protein rich foods, carefully observe whether the baby may develop allergies.
There are many complementary foods that are more suitable for babies to consume, but it is important to choose the appropriate complementary food based on the baby's age. Generally speaking, the suitable complementary foods for babies aged 4-6 months are liquid and semi liquid foods. When the baby is around 7-9 months old, it is advisable to add some high protein foods appropriately. It should be noted that babies under one year old should not eat condiments such as sugar, salt, and soy sauce.
