Nutritional Information of Ragi flour

When can babies eat ragi?

Because of the benefits of ragi for health, it is the best weaning food for babies after the age of six months. To be clear, it should not be your baby’s first food. Steamed and mashed veggies such as potatoes, apples, etc. should be the first thing on your menu to get started. You can make Ragi malt at home and other recipe of ragi flour that is ideal for your child. (Baby’s first foods: How to introduce solids?)

HEALTH BENEFITS OF RAGI:

Here are 6 reasons why ragi needs to be the next go-to snack for children.

1. GREAT SOURCE OF PROTEIN AND FIBER: 

100 grams of Whole Ragi Flour gives 7.29 grams of protein and 16.56 grams of fibre. Ragi helps in the easy movement of foods in the stomach and adds water into the stool, hence aiding easy digestion and relieving constipation. (6 Best foods for digestion and constipation in kids)

2. CALCIUM RICH – PROMOTES HEALTHY BONES AND TEETH:

When compared to other grains, ragi flour is one of the greatest non-dairy calcium sources. Calcium is essential for building strong bones and teeth, as well as for the prevention of a bone-weakening condition called osteoporosis. The sprouting process can increase the calcium content in Ragi by 20 percent. (Benefits of calcium in kids)

3. IMPROVES RED BLOOD CELLS PRODUCTION – PREVENTS ANEMIA:

Naturally rich in iron, ragi benefits those with low hemoglobin levels. Also, vitamin B1 helps in the synthesis of red blood cells and generates ATP, which is used by our bodies for energy.  (Foods rich in iron)

4. GLUTEN-FREE:

Ragi is a must-have for anyone on a gluten-free diet or suffering from celiac disease. For chapatis, dosas and some sweets, ragi can readily replace wheat because it is gluten-free. (A guide to a Gluten free diet for kids)

5. RICH IN ANTIOXIDANTS:

Other health benefits of ragi include its antioxidant property. Ragi is rich in antioxidants which prevents oxidation and fight against infections. Also, being a  rich source of amino acids, it aids the body’s natural ability to relax. You can efficiently combat depression, headaches and insomnia, as well as anxiety and stress, by consuming ragi. (Why do we need antioxidants)

6. GREAT PICK FOR THE LITTLE ONES AND NEW MOMS:

The health benefits of ragi make it a great choice for infants and new moms. As well as aiding with their digestion, it also strengthens their bones and promotes their overall growth. Ragi is great for stimulating milk production and balancing hormonal processes in pregnant women and young moms due to its high iron and calcium content.

Indian mothers are just as guilty for doing it, and Indian cuisine has a fantastic technique to combat it! Parathas! Even in states where rice is the predominant grain, parathas are among the most popular breakfast, lunch, and dinner foods.

6 Healthy Rice Recipes: Easy and Kids Friendly

Rice recipes easy

Children usually get bored when they consume the same foods every day. As a result, it is essential that we provide a range of flavours from our staple diet, such as rice, to keep kids away from junk food. Rice recipes are easy to prepare and nutritious for children. There is no limit to creativity, flavours and ideas with rice recipes that you can cook to tempt your kid’s taste buds.

Rice is a popular staple meal that is generally given to newborns as their first solid foods. It has several health advantages for newborns, including being an excellent source of B complex vitamins, being energy-dense, having helpful protein in rice, being easy to digest, rejuvenating the body when blended with milk, and being a remedy for diarrhea and dysentery. Rice is also mom’s favourite healthy cooking ingredient because of its nutritious characteristics.

NUTRITION IN white RICE:

Nutritional information of Rice

When can babies eat rice?

Rice is a relatively low allergen food that is good for newborns to digest. Rice may be given to kids as early as six months old, which is also the recommended age to begin solid foods. (Baby’s first foods: How to introduce solids?)

Health benefits of rice for babies:

Rice provides the following advantages to a baby:

  1. Replenishes the body’s energy: 100g of rice cereal provides around 79.15g of carbs. A cup of rice cereal might provide your kid the energy he or she needs to be active.
  2. Great source of vitamin B: Whole or brown rice is an excellent source of B complex vitamins. Each of these vitamins plays a crucial part in the baby’s entire development, including physical and mental development.
  3. Easily digestible: Rice, especially white rice, is extremely easy to digest. This is beneficial for newborns because they cannot digest heavier foods. Their digestive systems have not matured to the point where they can digest heavy, complex foods. (5 recipes for easy digestion in kids)
  4. Good for Bones: Rice is high in calcium and magnesium, both of which are necessary for strong bones. Regular rice meals, in addition to breast milk, can provide an extra calcium supply for the infant. (Foods for strong bones)
  5. Good for overall health: Along with macronutrients, rice includes trace amounts of micronutrients such as zinc, copper, and selenium, which are vital for proper growth and are required for several functions of the body. (7 health foods for kids daily nutrition)

6 Best Food Recipes Rich in Iron

Foods iron

Kids are fussy eaters, and they have plenty of reasons to refuse good and nutritious foods that should be included in their diet. If you have a fussy eater at home, you are probably concerned that he is not receiving enough nutrients from the food he consumes. During his growing years, your child will require a variety of vital nutrients, including iron. Iron deficiency or Anemia is prevalent in children, and it can cause a variety of health problems and negatively impact their general well-being. You may incorporate iron-rich foods into your child’s diet by reading this article. But, before we go into detail about foods for iron deficiency, it’s important to understand why iron is so important and what benefits it provides to children.

WHATSAPP for concerns like Speech Delay, Low Weight, Frequent Illness, Hyperactivity, Low Concentration, Weak Eyesight, Improper Sleep, Pigmentation, Pores, Face Marks, Fine Lines , Lactation etc.

What is iron and its benefits?

Iron is a necessary mineral for the body’s production of hemoglobin. It is essential for the growth and development of kids – both physical and mental growth.

Benefits of Iron:
  1. Iron is required by the body to synthesize hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells that aids in carrying oxygen to other cells. However, deficiency of iron causes anemia, which is why adding more foods for iron is required. It can help your child’s blood circulate and remain healthy.
  2. Enough iron consumption in growing children is linked to good cognitive development. Iron-rich foods should be included in your child’s diet because the majority of a child’s cognitive development happens during the first six years of life.
  3. Iron prevents hair loss, gives the skin a healthy glow and also speeds wound and injury recovery. 
  4. It enhances appetite, combats tiredness, boosts immunity and keeps kids active all day. (7 foods to boost immunity in kids)

Symptoms of iron deficiency or anemia in children include:

If you notice these symptoms in your kid, you must consult a doctor. Iron supplements can only be taken under the doctor’s supervision because excess iron accumulation can cause other complications. Undoubtedly, the best way to consume any nutrient is to take it through food. That results in lesser chances of overconsumption also. However, there are many foods for iron in India that can help to overcome iron deficiency.

The recommended amount of iron intake depends upon the age of the kid. When a baby is born, he/ she has iron stored in their bodies after that they get iron from mother’s milk or milk supplements. Once they start eating solids, they require more iron. As per studies the recommended amount of iron in kids is:

AgeDosage
Birth to 6 months0.27 mg (adequate)
7- 12 m11mg/ day
1-3 years7 mg/ day
4-8 years10mg/ day
9-13 years8 mg/ day
14-18 years11mg/ day (boy) 15mg/ day(girl)

How can a child’s body absorb more iron? 

  • Iron-rich meals should be served with vitamin C-rich foods, as vitamin C aids iron absorption. Oranges, lemons, strawberries, Indian gooseberries, guava, tomato, and other Vitamin C rich foods are also some examples. 
  • Calcium (particularly milk) hinders iron absorption, so limit your calcium consumption between iron-rich meals. Allow at least 4-5 hours between eating iron-rich meals and calcium-rich foods.
  • Cooking in iron pots and pans may assist to leach some iron into the meal. Make sure the iron containers do not rust by taking proper care of them. (What happens when you cook food in cast-iron cookware / skillet?)

 What are some of the foods for iron?

Green vegetables
