À quel âge puis-je donner à mon petit-déjeuner de céréales sans sucre ni sel?

Breakfast cereal usually contains sugar and salt which should not be present in my diet before I turn one. If you manage to find cereal without salt and sugar, you can give it to me with natural yoghurt. When it's wet, cereal sticks to my hand, so eating it will be fun!

Avantages

Cereals are a source of fiber as well as energy.

Quelle quantité de riz devrait être consommée dans le régime alimentaire d'un bébé afin d'éviter les effets nocifs de l'arsenic?

yes, but…

Basmati rice, parboiled rice, brown rice, black rice, red rice, wholegrain rice

You can give me rice as soon as you start expanding my diet, but it should be consumed in moderation due to the presence of arsenic. Rice, compared to other cereals, absorbs more (even 10-20 times more) arsenic from the environment. This applies to both ecological and conventional crops. Arsenic is an element which is present naturally in water, air, and soil, from which it's absorbed by some plants during their growth. It has been classified as a carcinogen. Its harmful effects apply to those people who consume it in large amounts in their diet. We're in no danger, mom :)

Avantages

Rice is a rich source of vitamins such as vitamin D, riboflavin, and thiamine. Moreover, it contains many minerals such as calcium and iron, as well as fibre. It has a beneficial effect on our nervous system and soothes allergies.

Risques

consuming a large amount of arsenic

Quel type de pâtes convient aux bébés qui commencent juste leur expansion alimentaire?

yes

Penne, fusilli, tagiatelle, spaghetti, macaroni, farfalle, durum pasta, wholegrain pasta, egg noodles

Pasta can definitely appear in my diet, mom! The most important thing is that its kind can accomodate my capabilities. If I'm just beginning my adventure with diet expansion, you can mash the pasta with a fork before giving it to me. If you use the BLW (Baby Led Weaning) method, serve it in the same form that you eat it. In the beginning choose macaroni or fusilli as it's going to be easier for me to deal with.

Avantages

Pasta, especially wholemeal one, contains fiber and microelements. Durum pasta contains large amounts of potassium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, copper, and manganese. Also, it contains valuable folic acid, B vitamins, and vitamin E. Lutein is also present in pasta. It protects from harmful effects of free radicals and contributes to proper eyesight. Egg noodles are more easily digestible due to a lower fiber content.

Quels sont les avantages pour la santé de l'ajout de la vitamine C à la farine d'avoine pour le rendre plus facilement absorbable?

yes

Buckwheat flakes, millet flakes, rice flakes

Oatmeal can be served as soon as you start expanding my diet, both raw (with yoghurt) and boiled (e.g. as porridge). It's important for the oatmeal to contain only one type of cereal and no unnecessary additives such as sugars or salt. Oatmeal is high in iron and to make it more easily absorbable add some vitamin C to it, particularly in the form of a fruit.

Avantages

Oats are an excellent source of carbohydrates and fiber. They are rich in nutrients and contain more fat and protein than most grains. Half a cup of oats contains 20% of the DV (daily value) of iron and zinc, 11% of the DV of folic acid and 39% of the DV of vitamin B1.

Quels sont les avantages de l'introduction de millets dans le cadre du régime alimentaire de bébé?

yes

You can give me millets already around 6 months old. You can blend it with fruits or vegetables to have the consistency of mush. With time you can try serving it less blended to have bigger clumps of food. If you're using the BLW method, then you can prepare millet balls which I can easily grab.

Avantages

Millets are a source of valuable nutrients. They are characterized by having high nutritional properties without containing any allergens, e.g. gluten. They contain fiber, antioxidants, iron, zinc, magnesium, copper, and vitamin B.

À quel âge mon bébé peut-il commencer à manger du sarrasin non torréfié selon la méthode BLW?

yes

Roasted buckwheat, unroasted buckwheat

Buckwheat grains are difficult to blend and serve as mush. It's also difficult to add buckwheat to my menu using the BLW method due to the fact that you can't overcook buckwheat to create buckwheat balls. When I manage to swallow less comminuted food, you can add buckwheat to my diet at around 9 months old. It's best to give me unroasted, lighter buckwheat as it has a less pronounced taste than roasted buckwheat and it's easier to digest. Also, unroasted buckwheat doesn't lose valuable vitamins due to being heated up.

Avantages

Buckwheat is considered to be the most valuable of all groats. It is a valuable source of protein, fiber, vitamin B1, B2, PP, folic acid, but also phosphorus, iron, magnesium, potassium, zinc, fats, and starch. Buckwheat has a beneficial effect on the digestive system - it prevents constipation and facilitates digestion.

Quels sont les avantages pour la santé du couscous pour les nourrissons?

yes

It's worth remembering about couscous because of its delicate flavour and how quick it is to make. This wheat groats can be used in soups, for example. Adding couscous to a dish will make lumps to be detectable and therefore I will be able to practice eating foods of a thicker consistency.

Avantages

Couscous contains a lot of vitamins and minerals such as thiamine, niacin, selenium, folic acid, manganese etc. It also contains sodium, protein, cholin, calcium, magnesium, and potassium,which are all important for proper development.

Mommy, did you know that quinoa is one of the superfoods and is considered a complete protein? Therefore, if you want to give me non-animal protein, be sure to remember about it. It's perfect with fruits or when added to soups. You can give it to me even beginning at 6 months old.

Quels sont les avantages de l'ajout d'amarante à l'alimentation d'un bébé à 6 mois?

yes

Amaranth can be given to me in all forms beginning at 6 months old. It should be present in both of our diets regularly. Amaranth is an amazing source of iron! Add it to soups, vegetables, meat, or fish.

Avantages

Nutrient content in amaranth is virtually unparalleled. It contains much more (compared with wheat, for example) magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium as well as necessary fatty acids. Also, meals made with amaranth are easy to digest and provide fast energy for the body.

Quelle est la meilleure méthode de cuisine pour les gruaux grossiers?

yes

Yes, I can eat bulgur with a spoon or try to put it in my hand! Coarse groats should be rinsed before cooking and cooked so that they absorb all the water. With most groats, the best ratio is 1:2. One portion of groats for two portions of water. It is best cooked covered, over low heat, without stirring.

Avantages

Bulgur is high in B1 vitamin and contains folic acid which is important for the development of my nervous system.
