We know that our approach to baby food is radically different, which is why you may have some questions. Learn more about the science behind Foodle and why food intake in the first 1000 days of life is crucial.
The first 1000 days of a child's life, from conception to their second birthday, are crucial for their development. Proper nutrition during this period supports brain development, a strong immune system, and healthy growth, laying the foundation for lifelong health.
During pregnancy, it's important to eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Key nutrients include folic acid, iron, calcium, and DHA. Always consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends introducing solid foods around 6 months of age. This is when babies typically show readiness signs, such as sitting up with support and showing interest in food.
Offer a variety of foods from all food groups to ensure a balanced diet. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, proteins, and dairy. Limit sugary snacks and drinks. If you have concerns about your toddler's nutrition, consult with a pediatric dietitian or healthcare provider.
It's common for children to go through phases of picky eating. Encourage a variety of foods without pressuring them. Offer small portions and introduce new foods alongside familiar favorites. Keep mealtime positive and be patient. Consistency is key, and over time, your child may become more open to trying new foods.
Most babies and toddlers can get the necessary nutrients from a well-balanced diet. However, some children might need supplements, such as vitamin D for breastfed infants. Always consult with your pediatrician before giving your child any supplements to ensure they are necessary and safe.
