Pediatricians are very categorical about the introduction of complementary foods in the baby's diet. There is an unspoken rule: if the child is exclusively breastfed, then it is better to start complementary foods with vegetable puree. However, if the baby ate an adapted mixture for the first time of life (or ate mixed), then doctors advise dairy-free cereals as the first step to adult nutrition.
Which products are best to use from 4-5 months?
Pediatricians advise starting complementary foods with the following dairy-free cereals:
- buckwheat;
- rice;
- corn.
Rice is the leader in starch content, buckwheat and corn are richer than rice in terms of dietary fiber. Let's consider such a variant of the first complementary foods as Nestle dairy-free rice porridge. Reviews about it are diverse and allow you to fully evaluate the quality of this product.
Nestlé brand
The history of the Nestlé brand dates back to 1867. Then the German pharmacist Henry Nestle created a mother's milk substitute for feeding babies. In those days, the mortality of infants was high if they did not have the opportunity to be fed with mother's milk. Henry Nestle made a revolution.
The product he created contained cow's milk, wheat flour and sugar. The company was named after the creator of "Milk Flour Henry Nestle" and began to supply products throughout Europe.
Nestlé began to be imported to Russia at the end of the 19th century, when Alexander Wenzel, a merchant from St. Petersburg, signed a contract with Henry Nestle for the supply of products to Russian territory.
Variety of products these days
Nestlé is one of the few manufacturers whose product range is wide and has long gone beyond infant formula. In the field of baby food, products are represented by cereals of different age categories and adapted mixtures (several items of different price categories and even dietary mixtures for allergies). This also includes the Gerber brand, which has established itself as a supplier of high quality puree to the children's table from the very beginning of complementary foods.
Nestlé cereals are distinguished by a large number of names. Many mothers choose them to start weaning, because this is a brand with a 150-year history that you can trust. Buckwheat porridge, corn, dairy-free rice porridge "Nestlé", reviews of which are alwayspositive, are used to introduce the child to new products most often. It should be remembered that rice is well absorbed and you can start complementary foods with it if the baby has an unstable stool. Buckwheat stimulates digestion and contains a lot of fiber, corn grits help with constipation.
