Child’s Health- Supplementary foods

Breast feeding is the most natural way to feed the newborn baby since it provides complete nutrition to the baby during the first six months of life. Breast feeding also helps to create loving bond between the mother and child. Breast milk provides energy and all the nutrients that the infant needs for the first six months of life and it continues to provide up to half or more of child’s nutritional needs during 6 to 12 months age. Further breast milk also provides one third of required nutrients to the child up to the second year of life.

When breast milk is no longer enough to meet the nutritional needs of the infant, supplementary foods should be given to the child. The transition from exclusive breast feeding to family foods, referred to as supplementary or complementary feeding, typically covers the period from 6 to 18-24 months of age.

Foods that are regularly fed to the infants in addition to breast milk, providing sufficient nutrients are known as supplementary or complementary foods. The word SUPPLEMENTARY is an adjective means completing and or enhancing something. In the present context supplementary food offers balanced nutrition and wellness to the child by enhancing the quality nutrients through supplementary foods.

Supplementary feeding is exclusively to complement and not to replace on-going breast feeding.

What is supplementary feeding for baby?


Infants are used to mother’s milk during the first few months of their lives. The method of induction is sucking, either from the breast or the bottle. This much feeding is enough for the baby till 4 to 5 months. The stomach capacity as well as the movement of tongue is small at this age. The introduction of slightly thicker and more varied food requires the child’s effort to propel the food to the back of the mouth with the tongue. If a shallow spoon is used to feed the baby , he/she can make a sucking action to some extent. When the baby is learning to swallow slightly the denser food he/she may spit it out. This does not mean that the child is not hungry or dislikes the food. The food should be thin to begin with, graduating to semi solid. Slowly the baby masters the art and swallow the food.

Among the physic- chemical characteristics of supplementary foods, density plays an important role. Keeping the child’s capacity of the stomach, the food shall be low in volume and rich in nutrients. As per ISI standards the supplementary food should possess adequate calorie, vitamin, mineral content and protein of good quality. The food should have lower dietary bulk, higher nutrient density, low fibre content.

Accordingly the baby food Pushti was formulated with local ingredients cultivated by organic methods. The suitable processing techniques were used to reduce the bulk and increase the density of food. Similarly uggu and pushti were developed by our grandmothers, who are pioneers in traditional food processing.
