A. Hi...ideally u should not. But there is no harm in giving pinch of salt after 10 months on & off. By this time kidney function is well developed. And instead of sugar u can add natural sweatners like date powder in dishes.

A. Salt of course you can but sugar sugar no instead of sugar you can go ahead with using jaggery powder or dates syrup both our very healthy option should actually try to avoid white sugar as long as you can as it does not very healthy in the longer run also

A. hello it is recommended to avoid giving sugar or salt in addition to the baby a especially till the child is one year as the added salt can affect the kidney and additional sugar can cause botulismn in baby so it is better to avoid till one year and use in fruit instead as an alternative to sugar as a sweet
