What nutrition guidelines should caregivers follow?
Proper nutrition is essential for a child's growth and development. Infants should be breastfed or given formula for the first year. Solid foods can be introduced around 6 months of age, starting with iron-fortified cereals and pureed vegetables and fruits. For older children, a balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins is crucial. Limiting sugar and salt intake is also important.
