Alimentos Bebé 6 meses

The moment to search: baby cereals 6 months, baby fruit 6 months, baby porridge 6 months... is when you know that your baby needs to complement breastfeeding with complementary feeding. Different foods are introduced to complement the baby's diet due to the expansion of their nutritional needs. There is no age to stop breastfeeding. This is a decision that the mother and her child must make, unless there is an emergency situation that forces the end of breastfeeding. At Smileat, we offer different options to start complementary feeding; starting with our porridges with 0% added sugars, a selection of the best organic cereals; and we also bet on our organic purees, both fruits and savory. Two very good options to start with new foods. It is worth noting that after weaning, babies have a "clean" body, that is, thanks to breast milk, their bodies have not yet faced the contaminants in food directly. Due to the short development of their bodies at the time of weaning, it is necessary to try to prolong this confrontation with contaminants as much as possible. We can achieve this by selecting not only organic but also ecological raw materials. Products with the European organic certification undergo a high level of scrutiny to ensure they do not contain contaminants, pesticides, or chemicals. This way, they are as natural as possible. At Smileat, we believe that selecting seasonal fruits and vegetables is essential to choose the best organic foods for our little ones and, thus, provide them with the best possible organic infant nutrition. In this way, we obtain homemade products that can be introduced into a healthy organic infant diet.

¿Sal y azúcar para bebés de 6 meses?

Both products are not recommended to be introduced into the diet of our children before 12 months. This is because their still-developing kidneys are not prepared for a large intake of salt or sugar, aside from what the products naturally contain (for example, breast milk or, when starting with jars, meat, fish, and vegetables). Regarding sugar, it is a nutritionally negative carbohydrate, as it has a glycemic spike and triggers metabolic reactions that can lead to fat accumulation that the baby may carry throughout life. That's why prepared meals designed for adults, such as soups, mashed potatoes, meatballs, and many other products, are not suitable for children: they contain salt, preservatives, additives, and the ingredients are not controlled or balanced for the needs of the little ones. At Smileat, we take a "no additives" philosophy very seriously. Foods already have the necessary amounts of sugar and salt, so it is not necessary to add more. Our jars, both savory and sweet, and our snacks, contain the natural amounts of salt and sugar.

The different flavors help develop the palate and acceptance of different foods. They do not contain preservatives or artificial additives
