Store-bought baby food may be healthier per meal than homemade.A lot of packaged baby foods contain large amounts of refined sugar and salt, which is neither necessary nor nutritious. It is added to make the food more palatable to children and can lead to them overeating and becoming used to overly sweet and salty meals, rejecting the more subtle flavours of homemade food.According to the report, from Healthy Babies Bright Futures, homemade baby food might pose the same problems as store-bought. When it comes to detectable levels of heavy metals, the report finds that homemade baby food is not safer than store-bought. Those heavy metals include lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury.
