Common practices and beliefs in the preparation of complementary infant feeding in a Spanish sample: a cross-sectional study

CONCLUSION: the population surveyed preferred to use mashed foods to feed children under 2 years of age. Even though they were aware that homemade food is nutritionally better, on certain occasions they offer store-bought baby cereal. Furthermore, some inappropriate feeding practices were detected, highlighting the need to implement nutritional education policies regarding infant food preparation.PMID:34176276 | DOI:10.20960/nh.03527
