First of all, the baby can eat a little after adding complementary food, that is, after 6 months. At this time, porridge and rice paste are mainly used, as well as vegetable paste and fruit paste. It really takes about 9 months to eat some oil and salt properly. Eating salt too early will harm the baby's kidneys.
Secondly, sodium contained in salt is an essential element for the growth of infants over 1 year. When the baby is about 65,438+0 years old, salt can be added appropriately when making complementary food, but the later the better. When adding it, we should also pay attention to the fact that the dosage can't be the same as that of adults, and it must be strictly controlled, not exceeding 2g at most, otherwise it will be harmful.
Babies are very sensitive to salt, mainly because they had to eat more carefully six months ago. Excessive salt intake is harmful to health. Upper respiratory tract infection is also the main cause, and the absorption of zinc will be limited. The baby's renal function is not perfect enough to absorb too much salt, so it is necessary to control the baby's intake of salt.
