Puree carrot for babies

Vegetable purees are often used as the first complementary food for babies, because they are useful, have a pleasant enough unostentatious taste, and most importantly - are well absorbed by a gentle baby's stomach. Among them, a special place is taken by carrot puree for babies, since this vegetable is not only a storehouse of vitamins and trace elements, but we also love crumbs for a sweetish taste.

However, despite obvious pluses, before preparing mashed potatoes for your babe, consult a pediatrician, since this vegetable is not so "harmless" as it seems at first glance. Very often carrots, like many other red and orange vegetables and fruits, can cause an allergic reaction in children. In addition, the conditions for growing the product are also important. Carrot puree for a child is best prepared from proven root crops, best of all - grown with your own hands. If this is not possible, and the quality of purchased vegetables is highly questionable, it makes sense to use as a complementary food carrot puree for children of industrial production, in jars. Authoritative manufacturers of baby food, as a rule, carefully follow not only the technology of production, but also the quality of their products.

But if you still categorically do not trust the canned food, prepare it yourself.
