After 6 months, babies need to be given complementary foods as their nutritional needs increase. When adding complementary foods, people have many questions because adults like to eat things with flavors, so they consider adding some seasonings to baby's complementary foods. Can sugar be added to baby food?
It is generally not recommended to add sugar to infants' complementary foods, as this can affect the formation of their taste in the future. Moreover, adding sugar to infants' complementary foods can lead to their habit of liking sweet foods. Moreover, eating too much can cause a sense of fullness in the intestines and stomach, making it difficult to consume other nutritious foods, resulting in a lack of minerals and vitamins, which directly affects the development of infants.
In addition, eating too much sugar can lead to infants developing an acidic constitution, weakening their resistance to the outside world and causing various diseases. So during infancy, parents should not add sugar to complementary foods. If the baby doesn't like to eat, parents can choose to feed the baby in a happy mood, which will make it easier for the baby to accept.
When babies eat complementary foods, they may have obvious resistance. Parents should try to encourage babies to eat complementary foods and make them more diverse, at least visually appealing, in order for babies to have an appetite. Once again, it is best for parents to customize a schedule and eat suitable food according to the baby's condition, which will be more beneficial for their development.
