Eggs are a very cheap food, the protein in the egg is a high-quality protein, and the absorption rate is very high, the yolk in the egg contains iron, lecithin, which is very important for the child's brain development, so the nutritional value of a small egg is not low!
In the previous era of material scarcity, eggs were a rarity, and pregnant women even ate six or seven eggs a day to maintain nutrition.
When adding complementary foods to children, many doctors will recommend that parents start adding egg yolks to their children.
This makes many parents feel that the nutrition of eggs is very comprehensive, as long as the child loves to eat eggs, it will definitely be able to grow well!
Twin brothers Ming Ming and Dada, Ming Ming is the elder brother, after adding complementary food egg yolk also likes to eat, by 10 months, a whole egg he can eat, but other meat dishes he does not like to eat.
Therefore, Mingming must have eggs in the recipe every day, and sometimes even eat 1 to 2 eggs a day, because other foods Mingming does not like to eat.
Miraculously, Dada does not like eggs at all, because he was choked once when he added egg yolks at 8 months, so he was far away from eggs.
Every time his mother made eggs, he didn't like to eat them, and when he didn't eat eggs, his mother changed her tricks to make him meat dishes and various foods.
Originally, when the older brother Mingming was born, he had 4 pounds, and the younger brother had 3 pounds and 5 two, and it has always been the older brother who grew taller.
Unexpectedly, when the child was one year old, his brother Mingming was only 74 centimeters tall and weighed only 18.5 kilograms, while his younger brother Dada was already 76 centimeters tall and weighed 20 kilograms, and his younger brother was taller and stronger than his brother!
My mother consulted with the doctor, why was my brother born with a heavier weight, and now my brother is heavier than my brother? And my brother especially likes to eat eggs, and he eats them every day.
After consulting his mother in detail, the doctor learned that his brother was actually a picky eater, but he loved to eat eggs, and other foods did not like to eat.
Although eggs are fully nutritious, if you only eat eggs, it is not conducive to the growth and development of children.
Because the most important nutrition of eggs is protein and fat, if you only give your child eggs and even eat less food, then the child's intake of carbohydrates is insufficient, and protein needs to be converted into energy, which is actually wasted.
The doctor also told his mother that the child's picky eating must be corrected as soon as possible, otherwise it will be more difficult to correct it when he is older.
You can make a variety of egg supplements for your child, you can add some other dishes to the egg, meat, or take the egg to make an egg cake, these are all OK, don't just steam eggs or boiled eggs for your children.
The mother suddenly realized that no matter how nutritious the food, it can not simply give the child a food, but must eat it comprehensively.
Children add complementary foods, mothers are prone to make these mistakes, see if you have hit
Mistake 1: Meat and eggs should be given to children to eat more
The child's nutritional needs are balanced, the protein of meat and eggs is high, and the nutritional value is indeed high, but only give the child meat and eggs, do not give the child to eat, which will lead to insufficient carbohydrate intake, and it is not conducive to the growth and development of the child.
Mistake 2: Give your child rice paste for too long
We recommend that children can add rice paste to their children at 6 months, but when the children are 6 and a half months to 7 months, they should consider giving their children porridge and eating various meat dishes.
The reason why rice cereal was added to the child at the beginning is because the nutritional value of rice cereal is relatively high, and it is also fortified with iron, and the rice paste is mushy, which is easier for children to accept.
But slowly the child's digestive ability becomes stronger, it is necessary to consider giving the child soft rotten rice or porridge, cooking vegetables and meat for the child, and allowing the child to consume more balanced nutrition through pure natural food.
It is recommended that children eat rice cereal for up to 8 months, after which they will have to eat a variety of foods.
Mistake #3: Give your child premature exposure to spices
Our most commonly used seasoning is salt, it is recommended that children do not need to add salt before the age of one, that is, because the child needs very little sodium before the age of one, just through breast milk milk powder or a variety of complementary foods that the child eats, it can meet the child's demand for sodium.
Add salt to the child before the age of one, and the sodium in the salt is a great burden for the child, but it is not conducive to the child's physical health.
In addition to adding salt to the child, it is not recommended to add sugar to the child, and even other various spices, monosodium glutamate and some star anise spices, these ingredients are not recommended for the child to add.
The above three common mistakes of complementary food addition methods, parents must avoid, in order to let the child eat right and grow well.
