WHO: Guiding Principles on Complementary Feeding (Weaning foods)
Weaning foods (more appropriately called Complementary Feeding) has been the topic on which I have received most questions in recent months (and perhaps always). I would therefore like to share with readers this document that is most useful to understand the basic principles that one must consider in starting and continuing complementary foods.
It is a WHO document: in PDF format.
Guiding Principles on Complementary Feeding
I would like to encourage everyone to read the entire document.
Core issues are discussed on pages 14, 18, 20 and 21.
Enjoy.
