Makanan yang perlu dielakkan daripada diberi kepada bayi dan kanak-kanak kecil
❌ Garam
Bayi tidak sepatutnya makan garam tinggi kerana tidak bagus untuk buah pinggang. Tidak perlu naikkan rasa makanan bayi dengan garam dan serbuk perasa.
Sentiasa ingat, bila masak untuk dewasa, sediakan untuk anak-anak yang kurang garam.
Elakkan makanan seperti kentang goreng bergaram, jajan, fast food, makanan luar untuk anak-anak kita. Kita tidak tahu kandungan garam di dalam makanan tersebut.
❌ Gula
Bayi tak perlukan gula tambahan. Elakkan memberi minuman tinggi gula termasuk jus buah, minuman kultur dsb. Anda boleh elakkan gigi rosak.
❌ Lemak Tepu
Makanan tinggi lemak tepu tidak baik untuk jantung dan salur darah. Elakkan makanan yang tinggi lemak.
❌ Madu
Kadang-kadang, madu mengandungi bakteria, yang boleh merembeskan toksin dan akan menyebabkan botulism kepada anak kecil, yang sangat merbahaya kepada mereka.
Jangan berikan madu sehingga anak mencapai umur 1 tahun. Madu juga sejenis gula. Jadi mengelak madu juga mencegah gigi rosak.
❌ Kekacang
Kekacang tidak sepatutnya diberikan pada kanak-kanak bawah 5 tahun. Terdapat banyak kes tercekik dilaporkan kebelakangan ini.
Jika nak berikan pada kanak-kanak berumur 6 bulan ke atas, pastikan ianya dihancurkan.
Hati-hati juga. Ada anak-anak yang allergic kekacang dan kekurangan g6pd (kacang parang).
❌ Telur mentah
Bayi boleh makan telur bermula 6 bulan. Namun pastikan ianya dimasak sepenuhnya. Bakteria salmonella yang ada pada telur boleh menyebabkan keracunan dan kematian. Ianya akan mati jika telur dimasak sepenuhnya.
❌ Makanan laut bercengkerang
Kerang, kepah, kupang, oyster dsb. Pastikan ianya dimasak dengan baik. Jangan dimakan mentah atau kurang masak. Ianya boleh menyebabkan keracunan.
Sekarang anda sudah tahu makanan untuk dielakkan, tiba masanya untuk anda amalkan. Mari kita jaga kesihatan anak kesayangan kita dari kecil. Semoga bermanfaat. ☺️

Food to avoid from being given to babies and children
❌ Salt
Baby shouldn't eat high salt because it's not good for kidneys. No need to increase the taste of baby food with salt and flavor powder.
Always remember, when cooking for adults, prepare for children with less salt.
Avoid food like salted fries, snacks, fast food, outdoor food for our children. We don't know the salt content in the food.
❌ Sugar
Baby doesn't need extra sugar. Avoid giving sugar drinks including fruit juice, cultural drinks etc. You can avoid damaged teeth.
❌ Saturated Fat
Saturated fat food is not good for the heart and blood vessels. Avoid high fat foods.
❌ Honey
Sometimes, honey contains bacteria, which can detect toxins and will cause botulism to small children, which is very dangerous to them.
Don't give honey until your child reaches 1 years old. Honey is also a type of sugar. So avoiding honey also preventing teeth from getting damaged.
❌ Peanut
Peanuts should not be given to children under 5 years old. There have been a lot of choke cases reported lately.
If you want to give it to children aged 6 months and above, make sure they are destroyed.
Be careful too. There are kids who are allergic to peanuts and lack of g6pd (machete beans).
❌ Raw eggs
Baby can eat eggs from 6 months. But make sure it's fully cooked. Salmonella bacteria on eggs can cause poisoning and death. It would die if the egg was fully cooked.
❌ Seafood striking
Clams, scallops, kupang, oyster etc. Make sure it's well cooked. Don't eat raw or less cook. It can cause poisoning.
Now that you know food to avoid, it's time for you to practice. Let's take care of our beloved child's health since we were young. Hopefully useful. ☺️
