Be a Kid’s Hero: Food and Nutrient Acceptance in the Early Years

Complementary foods, those other than breast milk or infant formula, are typically introduced around six months of age and ensure adequate nutrition as the baby grows. When not introduced to them, infants may reject foods introduced later and consume an inadequate variety to meet nutritional needs. Learn tips for increasing food acceptance and nutrient density in infancy through adolescence.

  1. Understand the nutrient needs of focus for infants at six months of age.
  2. Review how to prepare and introduce solid food for developmentally ready infants.
  3. Get research and strategies for increasing acceptance of solid foods.
