While most vegetables are safe for children, certain precautions should be taken:
- Choking Hazards: Raw vegetables like carrots and celery should be cut into small, manageable pieces. - Allergies: Monitor for any allergic reactions, especially when introducing new vegetables. - Nitrates: Avoid feeding high-nitrate vegetables like spinach, beets, and carrots to infants under six months old, as their bodies cannot process nitrates efficiently.
