Complementary feedings in infants 20

Anaïs Lemoine.
Abstract
Guidelines about complementary feeding changed a lot during these last twenty years. Complementary feeding should begin between 4 to 6 months for all foods. Early introduction of the most allergenic foods such as eggs, fish, peanut, decreases the risk of subsequent allergy. Texture should be adapted to the masticatory capacities, but the introduction of solid foods must not be delayed. Addition of fat must be systematic to cover the important lipid needs during childhood.
