When the baby grows up, parents will gradually add complementary food to the baby. However, when choosing ingredients, some parents are not sure whether their babies can eat them, such as edamame. So, can the baby eat edamame?
Babies can eat edamame. Soybean contains a lot of lecithin, which is one of the nutrients needed for brain development. Eating soybeans will not only harm the body, but also supplement lecithin, help the brain develop and enhance the memory ability of the brain. Growth is also conducive to intellectual growth, so it is ok for parents to give their babies soybeans.
In addition, baby eating edamame also helps to supplement iron. Generally, babies need to supplement iron properly, because iron plays an important role in blood transportation. If iron is absent, the baby may have anemia and other phenomena. Soybean not only contains iron, but also the iron inside is easily absorbed by the baby, which is also helpful for the baby's physical development.
But if the baby is less than three years old, some things about eating edamame still need parents' attention. Generally, fresh edamame contains saponin, saponin, thrombin and trypsin inhibitor. If these substances are not completely destroyed during cooking, babies may be poisoned after eating them. Therefore, parents are advised to cook edamame thoroughly for their baby.
Therefore, children should eat edamame as little as possible to prevent edamame from getting stuck in their throat.
