They usually pay more attention to their children's nutritional intake.
But they often match food according to their own understanding.
There will be an unbalanced diet in the middle.
Give the baby food with low nutritional density as nutritious food,
Causes the baby to be in a state of "not enough to eat" for a long time!
As mentioned in the previous article.
Zhang Wenhong, a doctor in online celebrity, said, "No porridge in the morning."
In fact, the basic meaning is
Don't give the children breakfast.
Eat only white rice porridge with low nutritional density.
Want to make the baby full and eat nutritious,
It is necessary to increase the nutritional density of each meal.
So what exactly is nutrient density?
Let's talk today.
Nutritional density of food refers to the concentration of important nutrients (vitamins, minerals and protein) in food based on unit energy, which is an important reference index to prevent malnutrition in infants.
Formula for calculating nutrient density:
Nutrient density = the content of a certain nutrient in food/the calorie of the same amount of food (100g)
Under the same calorie, the higher the nutritional density, the richer the nutrition contained in the food; The lower the nutrient density, the less nutrients are contained in the food.
Speaking human words is: food and food are different! Some "pit goods" have empty heat and no nutrition at all!
Give a chestnut
Soy products with the same amount of100g, including north bean curd, south bean curd, soybean milk, bean curd, bean skin and dried bean curd, are ranked as follows: bean skin > dried bean curd > north bean curd > south bean curd > bean curd > soybean milk according to their vitamins, minerals and protein concentration.
The same snack is100g, including yogurt, potato chips and fruit juice, so among the three, yogurt is definitely a food with high nutritional density.
For example, as mentioned by Dr. Zhang Wenhong, white rice porridge is not recommended for breakfast. White rice porridge has low protein content and low energy density. The protein content of rice is a kind of low content among all grains. If you add 5 or 7 times of water to make porridge, protein and energy are diluted by water, and the dry goods are few, so the natural nutrient density is very low, so you can only be considered as full of water.
Because of the production process, most of the vitamins and minerals in rice are lost in the processing process, which belongs to the lowest content of vitamins and minerals in staple food. However, because of the fine processing, it is more suitable for Xiaobaolai to eat and avoid the problem of indigestion.
For growing children, only providing energy is far from meeting the physical development needs, so parents are advised to give their children rice porridge with some foods rich in protein, vitamins and minerals.
For older children with chewing ability, at the same time, with some solid staple food to improve energy intake. Parents often tell me that after adding complementary food, the child's weight gain is not good. Tracing back to the feeding situation, it will be found that the staple food for children of eight or nine months is only rice noodles or porridge. This kind of feeding will lead to the above-mentioned children who only eat enough water and have too little energy intake, so the weight gain is not very good.
The following is a list of dietary arrangements for babies of different ages for your reference.
