Babies who breastfeed within 6 months need mothers to eat more iron-rich foods, and those who eat formula milk powder can buy iron-fortified foods. If it is a serious situation, you can supplement the iron agent under the guidance of a professional doctor.
After 6 months, the baby can add complementary food, focusing on eating foods rich in iron. Lean meat, animal liver and animal blood are known as the "iron triangle". In infancy, you can choose lean meat, moderate pork liver, and eat fruits containing vitamin C, which can promote the absorption of iron.
1, just add complementary food, you can choose iron-containing rice flour, make rice flour into a uniform paste, taste close to breast milk or formula milk, it is easier to absorb, and you can also supplement iron.
2. Liver is the first choice for preventing iron deficiency anemia. High iron content and good absorption rate, easy to eat and digest, suitable for babies. Make the liver into liver sludge, and add 1-2 times a week to the baby. According to the anemia situation, increase the number of times appropriately. It is best to choose chicken liver, which is delicate in texture and delicious in taste.
3, lean meat is also a good product for iron supplementation. After entering 7 months, you can add meat paste and meat foam to your baby. You can also put it in porridge or noodles and cook it all the time to make minced meat porridge or minced meat noodles.
At the beginning, you can also choose tender fish paste. After you get used to it, add pork, chicken, beef and other paste to your baby.
4. It is best to choose foods with high vitamin C content and meat to eat at the same time to help iron absorb better. Oranges, oranges, strawberries, melons, colored peppers, cabbages, broccoli, tomatoes, potatoes, green leafy vegetables and cauliflower are all foods with high vitamin C content. Fruit can be made into fruit paste, and you can eat small pieces of fruit when you are a little bigger.
Chicken liver paste
Ingredients: 20g of fresh chicken liver.
Production method:
1, chicken liver soaked in clean water for 2-3 hours, then washed with running water and cut into small pieces.
2. Put the chicken liver into the steamer, steaming for about 15 minutes.
3. Steamed chicken liver is pressed into mud.
There are two main sources of iron in natural food: animal and plant.
The absorption and utilization rate of heme iron contained in animal foods is higher than that of non-heme iron contained in plant foods, so we should eat more animal foods rich in iron.
However, plant-derived iron constitutes the main source of iron in our daily diet because of the high intake of food.
Therefore, both are very important and indispensable.
Heme iron from animals (winning by quality): animal liver, red meat such as pigs, cattle and sheep, blood products, etc.
Non-heme iron from plants (winning by quantity): beans, nuts, vegetables, dried fruits, egg yolks, etc.
The baby needs 10mg of iron every day. How can the complementary food be supplemented?
6-7 months old recipe: pig liver mud
Ingredients: pork liver, ginger slices.
Steps:
Recipe over 8 months old: stuffed meat with double mushrooms (10+)
Ingredients: lotus root, shiitake mushrooms, mushrooms, minced pork, onion, starch, egg white 1
Steps:
Baby iron deficiency anemia, in addition to eating iron, food supplement is also an important way to supplement, and food supplement is more healthy. Here are five complementary foods for iron supplementation and their practices.
Supplementary food 1: Pork liver porridge Add month: 8 months old
Duoma speaks
1. Soaked in pure water, the rice grains are softer.
Before cooking porridge, choose to soak it in water to increase the water content of rice, and it will be softer to cook after soaking. Duo Ma personally chooses pure water, and there is no scientific basis, which is due to personal habits.
2. There are many ways to supplement iron, and animal liver will do.
In this complementary food sharing, Duoma chose pig liver because it is the easiest to buy. In fact, other animal livers can also be used. I have eaten goose liver and chicken liver, but not as often as pig liver.
3. Cook pig liver first, and then chop it into mud.
When the baby just adds complementary food, in order to ensure the body to absorb it better, you can cook the pig liver in other pots before chopping it into mud. After the rice is cooked, put the pig liver mud in it and cook it for 20~30 minutes, which tastes good.
When the blossoming mother first started to add it to the blossoming, she was worried that the pig liver was not ripe enough and the blossoming body could not absorb it well, so this method was adopted.
4. stew for ten minutes to get more water.
This is a personal habit of Duoma. No matter what complementary food is made, as long as this procedure is used, it will last for ten minutes. On the one hand, when you open it directly, the steam may burn yourself, and on the other hand, if you stew it for a few minutes, the water will be more sufficient and it can also play a cooling role.
Supplementary food II: Age of pig blood porridge: 10 month.
Duoma speaks
1. Pig blood selection skills
Look at the color: dark red is appropriate, and red is generally processed; Touch by hand: it is hard and fragile, and what is hard here is relatively speaking, it is not good to be too soft; Look at the cross section: rough with some small holes, not smooth; Smell: Normal fishy smell is enough.
2. How to judge that the pig is cooked?
Mother can use chopsticks to pinch off one piece of pig blood to see if it is ripe. If it is ripe, cook it for another 3-5 minutes, and then taste one piece by herself to ensure that everything is ripe.
3. Pork blood mud porridge, rich in flavor and easy to absorb.
Pig blood can supplement iron, and it also has the effect of clearing lung. When Duoma once shared the Qingfei soup away from smog, she suggested giving pig blood directly to the 24-month-old baby. But please remember: when adding pig blood to your baby, you must mash it. The porridge cooked with mashed pig blood has a stronger taste and is more conducive to the absorption of your baby's stomach.
4. Pig blood, chicken blood and duck blood are all acceptable.
Under normal circumstances, Duoma will choose pig blood, because pig blood is the most common and easily available, but several other animal blood also contains iron absorbed by the human body, and it is good to change the taste occasionally. The method is the same as that of pig blood porridge.
Supplementary food 3: Beef porridge Addition age: 7 months old.
Duoma speaks
1. Meat supplements iron, which is easy to absorb.
In addition to animal liver, the iron supplement effect of animal meat is also good, and the absorption rate is very good, and the production method of meat paste porridge is very simple. Duoma believes that meat paste porridge is one of the best iron supplements for babies when they first add complementary food.
2. Complementary food can be added in a variety of ways, including animal meat.
Duoma has always stressed that adding complementary food to the baby needs diversification to ensure comprehensive and balanced nutrition. Therefore, in addition to beef paste, animal meat such as pork paste and chicken paste is also a good choice.
3. It can be chopped into mud raw or cooked before chopping.
When Duo Duo started to add complementary food, Duo Ma cooked the meat first, chopped it into mud, and then put it in the pot and boiled it with porridge. Later, after her gastrointestinal absorption was normal, she washed the raw meat directly, chopped it, and cooked it in rice.
Duoma thinks that the meat paste porridge cooked with raw meat and rice tastes more delicious. As for the way to cook the meat paste porridge, it is good for mothers to choose according to their own choices.
4. Do not add salt, do not add any seasoning.
For babies under one year old, Duoma advocates not adding salt or adding any seasoning to ensure the original flavor of complementary food and not increase the burden of baby's body digestion. In fact, light food is more conducive to the baby's body absorption.
Supplementary food IV: ribs seaweed soup's added age: 12 months or older.
Duoma speaks
1. blanch the bone with cold water, and remove oil and fat.
Blanching water can remove blood and a part of fat from bones, avoid being too greasy, and increase the burden of baby's digestion. Cold water soup tastes more delicious.
2. Chop the ribs into pieces and cut the kelp into small pieces.
Every place has different habits, and the way of selling ribs is different. If it is a large piece, it is recommended that mothers let the staff cut it into small pieces, so as not to cut it themselves after going home, which is too much trouble. There is no uniform standard for the size of ribs, depending on mother's habits and the capacity of the pot at home.
Some mothers may buy dried kelp, and some are wet kelp. If it is dry, remember to soak it in water to soften it, and then cut it into small pieces to make it softer and more tasty in the process of steaming in the pressure cooker.
3./kloc-For babies over 0/2 months old, add salt appropriately.
After the baby 12 months old, you can add a little salt, remember to add a small amount, as long as it is slightly salty, and you can't follow the usual adult cooking habits.
Supplementary food 5: fried pork with auricularia auricula. Age: 18 months.
Duoma speaks
1. Dry auricularia is soaked, and fresh auricularia is not recommended.
According to Duoma's common sense, fresh fungus contains some substances. It is said that if you are exposed to the sun after eating, it may cause itchy skin, edema and other symptoms, while dry fungus is exposed to the sun and soaked before eating, and the remaining harmful substances are dissolved in water to ensure non-toxicity. Whether it is taken by adults or for babies, it is not recommended to choose fresh fungus.
2. The black fungus is blanched and tastes better.
Although the auricularia auricula has been soaked for a period of time, it has grown very well, but Duoma's personal habit is to boil it in boiling water 15 minutes before each cooking to ensure a more delicate and smooth taste.
3. The egg white is marinated and the shredded pork is fresh and tender.
After cutting the meat into shreds, marinate it with egg white for a while, which will make it taste better, make the meat tender, make the baby feel refreshing and soft, and will not aggravate their chewing difficulties.
4. stir-fry the meat for the first time, not for too long
No matter whether the onion, ginger and garlic are added or not, the time for frying the meat for the first time should not be too long, and it is best to just cut it raw. If it is too old for the first time, it may harden for the second time, which will make it more difficult for the baby to chew and increase the sense of rejection of the meat.
5. Stir-fry the meat for the second time, and add appropriate amount of water according to the situation.
When the meat is put in for the second time, it is after the auricularia auricula is cooked. At this time, if the mother thinks the pot is too dry, she can add some water to avoid being too old or fried when the meat is fried for the second time.
END
Baby's iron deficiency will affect growth and development, so we must pay attention to it. The common manifestations are listlessness, inattention, irritability, loss of appetite, nausea, pale skin and mucous membrane, fatigue, dry hair, malnutrition and physical retardation.
1. Tomato and jujube soup
Ingredients: chicken liver, jujube and tomato.
Practice:
1. First break the chicken liver with a blender and remove the fascia; Soak jujube in clear water 1 hour, peel off the outer skin and inner core, and chop jujube meat; Wash tomatoes with boiling water and scald their skins, and take a little less and chop them into mud;
2. Stir all the materials evenly, add appropriate amount of water, and steam in the pan for 10 minute.
Jujube and chicken liver are rich in iron, and tomatoes contain vitamin C, which can promote the absorption and utilization of iron.
2. Pig blood, tofu and vegetable soup
Raw materials: pig blood, tofu, green vegetables, shrimp skin, salt.
Practice:
1. Cut pig blood and tofu into small pieces; Wash and chop vegetables; Soak shrimp skin in clear water to swell;
2. Put a proper amount of water into the pot, boil it, pour in the salt of shrimp skin, then add tofu, vegetables and pig blood, and cook for 3 minutes.
The utilization rate of iron in pig blood, chicken blood and other animal blood is 12%, which is easy to be polluted in the process of collection. If we pay attention to hygiene and process it into blood tofu, it is a good and cheap food for preventing iron deficiency anemia in children.
3. Fish paste and tofu soup
Raw materials: fish, tofu, onion and ginger, salt, starch and sesame oil.
1. Wash the fish, add a little salt and ginger, steam in a pot, remove the bone spurs, and mash;
2. Add a proper amount of water and a little salt to the pot. After boiling, add tender tofu cut into small pieces and add fish paste after boiling;
3. Add a little starch, sesame oil and chopped green onion and thicken it into a paste.
Fish and tofu are rich in iron, which helps to enhance the baby's resistance and promote growth and development.
When the baby is seriously deficient in iron, iron should be supplemented first. Of course, complementary food can also increase some iron, but it is slower.
After the baby is born, about 300 mg of iron is brought out from the mother. This iron element can only satisfy the baby for 4 6 months, so it is not later than 6 months to add complementary food to the baby. Of course, the first choice for complementary food is high-iron rice noodles, because fortified iron rice noodles are easier for babies to digest.
What complementary foods can supplement iron for your baby? ① Animal blood: for example, duck blood, pig blood, etc. The iron content of duck blood is relatively high, with 45 mg of iron per 100 g of duck blood, and the absorption rate is between 12% and 45%.
Practice: Soak duck blood or pig blood for 2 to 3 hours, boil it with clear water for 5 10 minutes, change water, put the ingredients in water again and cook for 10 15 minutes, and pour in a proper amount of sesame oil.
② Animal liver: such as pig liver, chicken liver, cow liver, sheep liver, etc. Every100g of pig liver contains 25 mg of iron, and the absorption rate can usually reach about15%.
Practice: soak the pork liver with lemon slices to remove the fishy smell, then directly boil it with boiling water, mash it into mud, and make it into pig liver mud for the baby to eat. Baby can't eat too much pig liver mud at a time, because pig liver contains heavy metals, so it can't exceed 40 grams per week.
③ The third place is the lean meat of animals, which can be made into paste for babies. If you make meat paste, pork and beef can be used. Of course, beef is better, because beef has low fat content and its amino acid composition is more suitable for baby's growth and development.
④ The fourth place is millet porridge, and the fifth place is sesame rice paste. Although the iron content of millet is not high, its absorption rate is the highest among all foods.
It's convenient to make sesame rice paste. The specific method is to add sesame seeds and rice flour or walnuts, crush these ingredients with high-speed blender, and then add appropriate warm water for the baby to eat.
Iron is an essential micronutrient for human body, which participates in important physiological processes such as hemoglobin and DNA synthesis and energy metabolism. Infants and young children are prone to iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia if they don't get enough iron from their mothers and don't supplement enough iron in complementary food. Iron deficiency anemia impairs the immune function of infants, affects physical development and intellectual development, and is extremely harmful to the health of infants.
Iron supplementation is extremely important for infants, and fortified iron rice flour is the first complementary food worth recommending. In addition to fortified iron rice flour, it is not realistic to eat only plant food to supplement iron. The good sources of iron in diet are mainly animal liver, animal whole blood, livestock meat, etc., among which animal liver and whole blood must be safe and reliable. At the same time, eat fresh fruits and vegetables or supplement vitamin C to promote iron absorption.
The following three misunderstandings should be avoided in the process of adding complementary food:
Myth 1: Drinking milk and eating dairy products can easily lead to iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia.
Milk is rich in calcium and little in iron. If the intake of iron-containing food is seriously insufficient at the same time as the intake of milk and dairy products, the risk of iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia will increase.
Myth 2: Spinach and red dates are the first choice for iron supplementation.
The iron content in green leafy vegetables such as spinach is generally high, but the iron in green leafy vegetables belongs to non-heme iron, and its absorption rate is low. At the same time, spinach itself contains a lot of oxalic acid. Even after blanching with water, the content of oxalic acid in spinach is still high, which not only interferes with the absorption of non-heme iron in spinach, but also interferes with the absorption of non-heme iron in other foods. Therefore, spinach and other green leafy vegetables are not the best food for iron supplementation.
Similarly, the content of iron in dried red dates is about 2.3mg/ 100g, and the absorption rate of iron is low (5%), so it can't be used as the first choice for iron supplementation.
Myth 3: Egg yolk is the best complementary food for iron supplementation.
The iron content in egg yolk is not high, and the absorption rate of iron is low (about 3%), so it can not be used as the first choice for iron supplementation. However, egg yolk is rich in various nutrients, and it is easy to obtain. For infants, it is still a high-quality complementary food with good quality and low price.
The best food for iron supplementation is animal liver (pig liver, chicken liver, duck liver, goose liver, etc.), followed by red meat (cattle, pigs, sheep) and fortified iron rice flour paste. Although some vegetables also contain iron, they are not easily absorbed by the human body, so if you want to supplement iron for your baby, animal liver and red meat are good choices.
At the same time, when you supplement iron to your baby, you should pay attention to eating more foods with more vitamin C. Vitamin C can promote iron absorption, and the effect of iron supplementation will get twice the result with half the effort.
Recommend several recipes for iron supplementation, which can be referenced by mothers who need it:
Mixed vegetable beef porridge 10 months or more ingredients: beef, rice, celery, Tricholoma, onion.
Practice:
1 Wash the rice and boil it into rice porridge for later use.
2 clean the beef, remove the fascia and cut into pieces. (After cutting, you can beat the beef repeatedly with the back of the knife to destroy its fiber, and the beef will be more tender.) Then put it in a pot with ginger slices in cold water and blanch it. After cooking, skim off the floating foam and take it out.
3 blanched beef is beaten into minced meat with proper amount of warm water.
4 Wash onion, celery and Tricholoma, and cut them into diced vegetables and diced for later use.
5 put some oil in the pot, add onion and Tricholoma, stir-fry until fragrant, then pour the minced beef into the pot and stir-fry together with the soup, and finally add warm water without ingredients, and simmer for a few minutes on low heat.
6 when the soup is almost dry, add the cooked rice porridge and mix well, sprinkle with celery and cook for a minute or two.
Iron-supplemented pork cake 1 1 month or more ingredients: pork tenderloin, eggs, tomatoes, celery and flour.
Practice:
1 Wash tomatoes, cross the top, soak them in boiling water for minutes, peel them and cut them into dices.
2 celery is boiled in a boiling water pot, then removed and chopped.
Slice pork tenderloin, blanch in cold water, remove and cut into dices.
4 Beat the eggs into a bowl, break them up, add proper amount of flour and mix well. Finally, add diced tomatoes, chopped lean meat and chopped celery, and stir until they are viscous and fluid.
5 Open a small fire in the pot, brush the oil layer, pour in the batter, spread it evenly, level the surface, turn it over after the bottom solidifies, and finally take it out of the pot and cut into pieces.
Pork liver and red dates soup/kloc-ingredients over 0/year old: carrots, pork liver and red dates.
Practice:
1 clean fresh pork liver, slice it, and soak it in clean water for half an hour (change the water halfway)
Peel and cut carrots into small pieces, soak red dates in warm water and then remove the core.
3 pork liver slices are boiled in cold water, and finally the floating foam is removed and washed in clean water.
Brush some oil in the pot, pour in carrot slices and stir fry, then add some water to boil.
5 After the water is boiled, add pork liver slices and red dates, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes on low heat until the ingredients are cooked.
Supplementing iron to the baby, mothers may wish to remember like this: high-iron rice noodles are indispensable (pre-complementary food), red meat is changed every day, the liver is eaten once a week, vitamin C vegetables are eaten with meals, and vitamin C fruits are eaten with meals; This kind of balanced and diversified food supplement is not afraid of the baby's iron deficiency.
Babies usually start to add complementary food in about six months, and at this time, treasure mothers have to worry about the nutrition of baby complementary food. Since the baby is six months old, the iron nutrient elements from the mother's own reserves have gradually decreased, especially for the baby who is exclusively breastfed. Therefore, most babies have iron deficiency anemia when they have a physical examination for six months.
What are the dangers of iron deficiency in babies?
Therefore, caregivers should usually observe the baby's spirit and appetite to see if there is iron deficiency.
There are two ways to supplement iron for your baby. First, take oral iron.
Mainly for babies who are already anemic, it is impossible to get enough iron from food. There are many kinds of iron in the market, so you should go to the hospital in time and add oral iron for your baby under the guidance of a doctor. During the baby's oral administration of iron, some fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C can be added, which is beneficial for the baby to better absorb iron nutrients.
Second, get iron nutrients from food.
Such as breast milk, formula milk powder, high-iron rice flour and iron-rich complementary food.
Which complementary foods have good iron supplementation effects? It is not recommended to give the baby animal liver and blood from June to August.
Because this month-old baby's gastrointestinal digestive function is not perfect, its digestive ability to animal's liver and blood is very weak. Generally, it takes the baby about 8 months to add animal liver complementary food. In June, the baby can choose egg yolk and vegetable food to supplement iron.
Foods that babies can eat and are rich in iron nutrients:
Vegetables: black fungus, black sesame, spinach, tomato, broccoli.
Meat: the utilization rate of iron in animal blood such as liver, pig blood, chicken blood and duck blood is 12%, pork and beef.
Egg yolk
Conclusion: For novice parents, they should learn more about parenting knowledge in the new era, feed scientifically, have a reasonable and balanced diet, cultivate good eating habits, and minimize the incidence of iron deficiency anemia in their babies. If the baby is anemic for too long, it will affect the development of various functions of the body, so parents should not be careless.
I hope my suggestion is helpful to you.
Baby anemia is a common disease, such as iron deficiency anemia, which is more common in babies aged eight or nine months to two years old, mostly because of the lack of enough iron in the food they eat every day.
Some babies still take breast milk as their staple food after eight or nine months. If they don't supplement the nutrition of eggs and fish in time, there will be iron deficiency and anemia.
After the baby adds complementary food, we should pay attention to the daily nutritional balance and add complementary food with more iron in time. Meng Ma recommends several complementary food recipes suitable for baby's iron supplement:
Spinach and pork liver soup ingredients: spinach and pork liver;
Practice:
1, wash spinach and cut it into small pieces for later use;
2. After cleaning the pig liver, cut it into thin slices for later use;
3. After adding water to the pot and boiling, add spinach and pork liver and cook until the pork liver is cooked.
Mother's feeding: drink soup and eat spinach and pig liver once a day, which is suitable for iron deficiency anemia symptoms.
Chicken liver porridge ingredients: chicken liver, rice;
Practice:
1, remove the membrane from the chicken liver, remove the tendons, wash it, and chop it into mud for later use;
2. Wash the rice clean, put it in the pot, add appropriate amount of water, and boil it over high fire;
3, change the small fire to boil, then mix in the chicken liver mud and cook the chicken liver.
Mother's feeding experience: the liver is rich in nutrients and has nutritional and health care functions, and it is one of the most ideal blood-enriching products.
Peanut red dates millet porridge ingredients: millet, peanuts, red dates;
Practice:
1, after washing the millet and peanuts, soak them in clear water for about half an hour;
2. Wash the red dates with warm water, remove the core and set aside;
3. Put the millet, peanuts and red dates into a casserole, boil over high fire, and turn to low heat to cook until the ingredients are cooked.
Mother's feeding experience: peanuts, red dates and millet all contain a certain amount of iron, and the iron supplement effect is stronger when they are eaten together.
I hope my answer will help you.
Liver mud and egg soup
Ingredients: pork liver and eggs.
Practice: 1 pig liver was washed to remove fascia, and then it was mashed with a blender. 2 after the eggs are broken, add the pig liver mud and mix well with appropriate amount of water. 3 steam in a steaming rack.
Mother's experience: Pig liver is rich in trace element iron, which is effective in supplementing iron and treating anemia.
Nutritionist's comment: This complementary food designed by this mother is rich in nutrition and has her own experience. It should be noted that 4~6 months old babies take milk as the staple food and add complementary food, so it is necessary to create a transitional period for them to gradually adapt to foods other than milk. In order to let the baby digest and absorb this complementary food, the complementary food should be made into delicate soup, juice and paste as much as possible.
Pork liver tomato straw mushroom porridge
Ingredients: rice, pork liver, tomato, straw mushroom, broth.
Method: 1 rice soaked for later use; Boiled pork liver and ground into small granules. 2 tomatoes are peeled and mashed into paste; Blanch straw mushrooms and grind them into small grains. 3 put the rice into the broth, cook the porridge until it is thick, and then add the pork liver and grass in turn.
Mushrooms and tomato paste can be cooked.
Mom's experience: tomatoes can get rid of fishy smell, and straw mushrooms also have a lot of vitamin C. Eating more can improve immunity.
Nutritionist's comment: This stewed porridge takes care of a variety of nutrient needs. Among them, pig liver and straw mushroom fragments can promote the eruption of baby deciduous teeth and practice chewing, which is beneficial to maxillofacial development. Tomato is rich in lycopene, vitamin C and carotene, which is beneficial to growth and development.
Nourishing pork liver and red jujube steamed noodles
Ingredients: Heinz bone marrow vegetable paste, Heinz gold loaded Zhiduoduo pork liver red jujube nutritious noodles.
Practice: 1 Break the nutritious noodles of Heinz gold loaded Zhiduoduo pork liver and red dates into short pieces.
Put it in a dish and add some water. 2. Put into the pot, steam the noodles until cooked, add Congpei nutrition package and stir well. 3. Add Heinz vegetable bone marrow mud into noodles and stir well.
Mom's experience: pork liver with vegetable paste is beneficial to baby's nutrient absorption and digestion.
Nutritionist's comment: Using the pre-configured baby complementary food as baby fast food can take care of the baby's various nutritional needs, and the baby is willing to eat, which also saves time for parents and has its advantages. Considering the limited amount of vegetable paste, tomato or other vegetable pieces can be added to this pasta to promote the growth of babies.
