Cauliflower is also known as cauliflower, and green cauliflower is also known as broccoli. Its nutritional value is generally higher than other vegetables. Cauliflower contains a lot of vitamin C, and is rich in nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Its vitamin C content is four times higher than that of Chinese cabbage, which can enhance the detoxification function of baby's liver and improve baby's immunity. Carotene content is 8 times that of Chinese cabbage; The content of vitamin B2 is twice that of Chinese cabbage. These nutrients are indispensable ingredients for the healthy growth of your baby.
The method of cauliflower juice is as follows:
1, wash the cauliflower first, soak it in salt water for 5 minutes, and break it into small flowers. 2. Cook in a hot water pot, and then juice with a juicer. This is more suitable for babies over 5 months old.
Tomatoes are one of the vegetables we often eat, and they belong to the fruit of vegetables. Eating raw and cooked food has high nutrition. The nutritional value of tomatoes is very high, and the contents of various vitamins are 2-4 times higher than those of apples, pears, bananas and grapes. These vitamins and other nutrients are almost lost when eaten raw, and can be absorbed by the baby. Tomatoes contain a lot of fruit acid, which has a protective effect on vitamin C; When cooked, lycopene is easily absorbed by the baby. It is a natural pigment that turns tomatoes red, which has the functions of antioxidation and protecting the inner wall of blood vessels.
The practice of tomato juice is as follows:
Wash tomatoes, blanch them with boiling water, peel them, wrap them in gauze and squeeze them or squeeze them into juice with a juicer.
Matters needing attention in drinking vegetable juice
Vegetable juice is a kind of complementary food that mothers add to their babies, because with the baby's growth, breast milk or milk powder feeding can no longer meet the baby's comprehensive nutritional needs.
1, there is little difference between the drinking principles of vegetable juice and fruit juice, and the principle should be followed from less to more (no more than 20 ml at a time). For a 6-month-old baby, it is appropriate to drink fruit juice or vegetable juice 3-4 times a day.
2, fresh vegetable juice should not add sugar, otherwise it will increase calories. Moreover, it is not suitable for babies to add sugar.
3. Do not heat. The heated vegetable juice will not only make the aroma of vegetables run away, but also destroy all kinds of vitamins.
4. Do not drink with milk products. Dairy products are rich in protein, while fruit and vegetable juices are mostly acidic, which will make protein coagulate in the stomach and cannot be absorbed, thus reducing the nutritional value of dairy products and vegetable juices.
5. For vegetable juice, it is better to squeeze it and eat it now. Because vegetable juice contains many vitamins, the vitamins are easily oxidized, so the storage time is not easy to exceed 1 hour, otherwise it is easy to deteriorate.
Also, even if the baby doesn't like vegetables, try them for the baby from time to time, so that the baby will not be so picky when he is older.
