A few days ago, the news that her mother felt that her 8-month-old baby had no strength and gave her salt to cause a high fever caused death. In the end, can infants and young children eat salt? What other common foods cannot be eaten by infants and young children? What is the secret of this? On March 24th, the reporter interviewed Kong Juan, professor and director of Clinical Nutrition at Shengjing Hospital, China Medical University. He gave answers to many children's parents.
Salt: increase the burden on the kidneys
"Infants within 1 year of age do not advocate eating salt," said Kong Juan, clinical nutrition director and professor at Shengjing Hospital, China Medical University. He said kidney development within 1 year of age is imperfect, and eating salt will increase the burden on the kidney and it will be detrimental to the body. And in many natural foods, it also contains a little bit of salt, such as bananas, vegetables and so on. Infants and young children are not well-developed, and salt is not needed for adults.
For children over the age of 1, try to add a little salt gradually, especially in foods that children do not like, such as adding a little salt to the leaves and eggs. Children younger than 3 years old can eat 4 grams or less of salt per day.
Recommendation: For babies who have just begun to add complementary food within 1 year of age, it is best not to eat salt and any condiments.
Tea chocolate: stimulate the central nervous system
In addition, the central nervous system of infants and young children has not developed well. For example, a child after 10 months can accurately grasp an object by hand under the instruction of the brain. The tea contains caffeine and other ingredients to stimulate the nervous system. Moreover, during processing, transportation, and preservation of the tea, there may be bacterial contamination, or the concentration is not easy to grasp. Therefore, there is no need for children to take these risks. Chocolate can stimulate the central nervous system, and it is easy for children to fall asleep and cry. Therefore, they must stay away.
Recommendation: Do not drink tea or eat chocolate under 3 years old.
Honey: Poisoning easily
Honey is rich in nutrients, in which fructose and glucose are easily absorbed by the body, which is good for relieving cough and constipation. However, because of the long-term storage of honey, botulinum may be a dangerous anaerobic bacterium. Because of its weak immunity, infants will breed in the intestine and produce toxins that cause poisoning. In severe cases, it will cause poisoning. Weakness, breathlessness, etc. For adults, a small amount of botulinum will not cause any harm, so parents should not care less.
Suggestion: Do not add honey to your baby's milk powder or food less than 1 year old to avoid bacterial infection.
Soybean milk dumplings: not digestible
Soymilk contains soy protein that is not easily absorbed by young children and cannot provide appropriate nutrition. And the dietary fiber in it is not easy to digest, it is easy to produce flatulence, love to pull the stomach, causing digestive disorders. In addition, infants and young children are not well-developed gastrointestinal tract, digestive enzyme secretion is not enough, for the sticky food such as dumplings, but also poor digestion.
Recommendation: Do not eat dumplings before the age of 1.5, do not drink soy milk before the age of 3.
Fruit: Some susceptible to sensitization
Try to give your children local fruits such as apples, bananas, and pears, which are both cheap and safe. Mangoes, kiwifruit, etc., can easily cause some infants and young children allergies leading to eczema, breastfeeding mothers do not eat.
Recommendation: Infants younger than 1.5 years should not eat sensitized fruits.
Candy: Corrosion of teeth can lead to picky eaters
Prematurely giving children sugar can raise the child's taste too high, which can easily lead to children picky eaters. Children who love sweets do not feed well, so parents should pay attention to nurture their children's eating habits. In addition, children do not brush their teeth, too much sugar is eaten too early, the teeth are prone to corrosion, affect dietary intake, and it is not conducive to growth and development.
Suggestion: Infants within 3 years of age should eat as little sweets as possible.
Animal Fat and Cold Drink: Stimulate Gastrointestinal
The child's health is also related to the nursing habits of the nursing mother. Kong Juan suggested that breast-feeding mothers should not eat too much animal fat. Too much oil can easily lead to diarrhea. There are ice cream, ice cream and other cold drinks, infants and nursing mothers also try not to eat, no nutrition, and secondly, it is easy to stimulate the gastrointestinal.
Recommendation: Do not eat too much animal fat and ice cream, ice cream and other cold drinks.

Breast milk is the best food for infants and young children
Kong Juan reminded parents that no food can replace breast milk and meet all the nutritional needs of the baby. Therefore breast milk can eat children from 1.5 to 2 years old. After 6 months, children can try to add complementary foods such as rice noodles, pureed vegetables, and egg yolks. Egg yolk can be added first 1/4 and gradually increase. While observing the child's urine, there are eczema, cough, acid reflux, odor and other symptoms, which may be caused by eating allergies or indigestion.
If there is no condition for breast-feeding, it is recommended that infants should be given infant formula because the trace formulas and nutrients will be enhanced in infant formulas. For example, Asian children may be targeted to add iron and zinc deficiency. If your child can tolerate fresh milk, you can also drink fresh milk after age 1.5. But overall, human milk is easier to digest than milk, and the ratio of calcium to phosphorus is more in line with the physiological needs of infants.
