Feeding Practices Among Infants

Growth of all Infants from the age of six months onwards depends largely upon the provision of additional building materials supplied through infant foods in order to help them grow into healthy and active adults. They need to be fed on a diet that provides all the nutrients and energy required for normal growth; vitamins and minerals to alleviate their hidden hunger and keep them strong. The term “to wean” means “to accustom” and it describes the process by which the baby is gradually introduced to foods other than milk and is recommended between the 4th and 6th months
