Many theorists are still debating the benefits and dangers of cow's milk for babies. Due to conflicting opinions, most parents doubt the correctness and rationality of introducing milk into the child's diet.
Instructions
Step 1
Opponents of this dairy product in the child's diet explain this by the high content of phosphorus in milk, which, when metabolized in the body, is directly related to calcium. Excess phosphorus is easily removed from the body, but in babies this process is much slower, and this also affects the calcium content in their body. And a lack of calcium for babies can negatively affect their health.
Step 2
The milk contains all the essential vitamins and minerals that are necessary for the normal development of the child. It contains basic organic and mineral elements. The proteins found in milk are irreplaceable. The protein contains special amino acids that are involved in the construction of cells, and immunoglobulins, which protect the body from viruses and infections. Milk contains almost the entire table of water- and fat-soluble vitamins.
Step 3
Until the child reaches the age of one year, introduce cow's milk into his diet by adding it to cereals and vegetable purees. When using milk for the first time, be sure to dilute it with water in a 1: 1 ratio, gradually reducing the amount of water. Then boil the porridge and use undiluted milk in the preparation of vegetable purees.
Step 4
Cow's milk can also be given to a child only after the first year of life. If tolerated, give your child 200 grams of drink daily. Choose only high-quality, low-fat milk, and then it will benefit your baby. Even if the child tolerates this product well, it is not necessary to give a one-year-old baby more than 200 grams of milk per day.
Step 5
When introducing cow's milk into a child's diet, be sure to monitor the body's reaction to this product. If you have any allergic reactions, be sure to contact your pediatrician.
Step 6
