A. Hello, Organisations like the American Academy of Paediatrics do not recommend homemade juice due to lack of pasteurization. However, the National Guideline on Infant and Young Child Feeding (INDIA) recommends boiled homemade food and juices. This may be due to lack of a practice of eating packaged foods
