Can a one year old baby eat sea cucumber
Generally speaking, it is not recommended for one year old babies to eat sea cucumber regularly. Because sea cucumber is a great tonic food, it contains a relatively high amount of hormone substances, which is not very suitable for one year old babies. It can easily cause internal heat and even lead to adverse consequences such as precocious puberty. But if the baby's body is poor and their immunity is weak, they can also consume a small amount of sea cucumber under the guidance of a doctor to improve their immunity.
What should one year old babies pay attention to in their diet
1. At the age of one, babies should have already added a variety of complementary foods. At this point, you can start gradually letting your baby and other family members eat the same food. However, it should be remembered that the characteristics of food are determined by the baby's chewing ability, and oversized food can be crushed a little.
2. Exercise your baby to use utensils to eat on their own and learn to eat independently as soon as possible. It is best to have babies and adults eat at the same time and gradually regulate the timing of their meals.
Although the baby is already one year old, their stomach capacity is still relatively small. It is important to eat small meals frequently and not let the baby eat too much to avoid putting too much burden on their digestive system and causing discomfort.
