A. A well-balanced and nutritious diet is crucial for the healthy development of a 1-year-old Indian child. Here's a general guideline for their diet: 1. **Grains:** - Rice - Chapati or roti (whole wheat flatbread) - Dalia (broken wheat) - Idli or dosa (made from fermented batter of rice and urad dal) 2. **Proteins:** - Lentils (dal) - Chickpeas - Paneer (cottage cheese) - Eggs (if your child is not allergic) 3. **Vegetables:** - Carrots - Spinach - Sweet potatoes - Peas - Tomatoes 4. **Fruits:** - Bananas - Apples - Pears - Mangoes - Papaya 5. **Dairy:** - Curd (yogurt) - Milk 6. **Healthy Fats:** - Ghee - Butter - Avocado 7. **Snacks:** - Suji (semolina) pancakes - Poha (flattened rice) - Fruit slices 8. **Fluids:** - Water - Homemade fruit juices (avoid adding sugar) - Coconut water Remember to cut food into small, manageable pieces to prevent choking. Introduce new foods one at a time and observe for any signs of allergies. Adjust the portion sizes based on your child's appetite. It's always a good idea to consult with your pediatrician for personalized dietary advice based on your child's specific needs and preferences.
