I always used to believe that the
food items available in the market are getting adulterated over a period of
time. But something proved me wrong. For you to understand this, I would like
to share my experience with you.
I understand that every mother wants
to provide the best nutritious food to their kids whether he/she is an infant
or a toddler or a 20 year old kid.
But of course, mothers' concern for an infant/toddler would always be more as
they require better nutrition for their physical and cognitive growth.
Let me share my experience with one
baby food product which one of my friends was using for her 8 months old kid
and introduced it to me after she found it being loved by her kid. The name of
that product is Nestle Gerber baby food.
She told me that this baby food product is not only tasty but very healthy and
has high nutritious values which are very much needed for kids.
Frankly, my first thoughts were not
so good about packaged foods specially for kids but I thought of just using it
once for my younger daughter too (she is also 9 months old) as it claims to be
100% organic and chemicals free. Moreover, my friend was also recommending me
so I thought of ordering online and experiencing it with my kid.
She told me about the ibhejo website
from where one can order anywhere in India. Then I explored the site and
found really good products over there. I ordered Gerber’s Organic Pear Mango Avocado puree and Teether Wheels which
are made up of totally organic fruits.
This ibhejo website shows every
detail about the product like its organic food certification, ingredients etc.
The few things which was really great about the transparency about the Nestle
Gerber’s products were:
1.
A set of products are made of 100%
Organic fruits and veggies
2.
Product ranges from infants to
pre-schoolers
3.
No artificial flavours or colors
used
4.
Products are research based
5.
Options like single grain or
multigrain are present which really help to choose product as per child
age
6.
Products ranges includes puries,
yoghurt, squash, cereals and snacks
One more thing which I really liked
about the Gerber foods is their social responsibility. They have partnered with
TerraCycle (a waste management company) and are working on making all of their
packaging 100% nationally recyclable.
My baby is also loving the teether wheels which are the snacks
food product. Her teeth are just coming out and the best part of these snacks
is that they soothe the baby gums with providing a great taste to kids. They
are perfectly and uniquely designed to fit their tiny hands.
While travelling I will make sure to
carry these Gerber snacks. I do not prefer a bag of typical chips or a glass of
so called healthy drinks in the market which are high in added sugar. These are
not only unhealthy but also disrupt normal body function of a child's body. I
always go with the thought of nourishing my kids with healthy and nutritious
snacks like puffs and yoghurt melts made with whole grains instead of highly
processed foods. These whole foods will not only make them feel full but also
provide the perfect nutrition and energy required for a child.
Here is a list of product which I
liked the most
You can also check
out Gerber's wide range of
health snacks
specially made for kids. While your little
one is trying hard to feed on their own, give their tiny hands full of
nutrition. Let their little fingers pick the perfect food that will nourish
them from within.
A child needs at least three big
meals and two snacks time in a day. If snacks also cover a wide range of
nutrition then for a toddler who is a fussy eater, these snacks act
like a day saver for a mother.
