Finger food me pasta bhi de sakte h bt vo maida k bane hote h to baby ko de sakte h?

Question

Accepted Answer

For a 1-year-old, it's generally better to avoid giving foods made from refined flour (maida) as they can be less nutritious and may not provide the best dietary benefits for young children. Instead, opt for:

1. **Whole Grain Options**: Choose pasta made from whole grains like whole wheat or brown rice. These options are higher in fiber and nutrients.

2. **Healthy Finger Foods**: Offer small, soft pieces of fruits, vegetables, or whole grain foods that are easy to grasp and chew. Cooked pasta made from whole grains can be a good choice if prepared appropriately.

3. **Nutrient-Rich Foods**: Ensure your baby’s diet includes a variety of fruits, vegetables, proteins, and whole grains to support balanced nutrition.

If you decide to offer pasta, make sure it is well-cooked, cut into small, manageable pieces, and monitor your baby while eating to avoid choking hazards.
