Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food consumption is a significant and complex social activity—and what a society chooses to feed its children reveals much about its tastes and ideas regarding health. In this groundbreaking historical work, Amy Bentley explores how the invention of commercial baby food shaped American notions of infancy and influenced the evolution of parental and pediatric care. Until the late nineteenth century, infants were almost exclusively fed breast milk. But over the course of a few short decades, Americans began feeding their babies formula and solid foods, frequently as early as a few weeks after birth. By the 1950s, commercial baby food had become emblematic of all things modern in postwar America. Little jars of baby food were thought to resolve a multitude of problems in the domestic sphere: they reduced parental anxieties about nutrition and health; they made caretakers feel empowered; and they offered women entering the workforce an irresistible convenience. But these baby food products laden with sugar, salt, and starch also became a gateway to the industrialized diet that blossomed during this period. Today, baby food continues to be shaped by medical, commercial, and parenting trends. Baby food producers now contend with health and nutrition problems as well as the rise of alternative food movements. All of this matters because, as the author suggests, it’s during infancy that American palates become acclimated to tastes and textures, including those of highly processed, minimally nutritious, and calorie-dense industrial food products.

Download or read book Infant Formula written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-06-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infant formulas are unique because they are the only source of nutrition for many infants during the first 4 to 6 months of life. They are critical to infant health since they must safely support growth and development during a period when the consequences on inadequate nutrition are most severe. Existing guidelines and regulations for evaluating the safety of conventional food ingredients (e.g., vitamins and minerals) added to infant formulas have worked well in the past; however they are not sufficient to address the diversity of potential new ingredients proposed by manufacturers to develop formulas that mimic the perceived and potential benefits of human milk. This book, prepared at the request of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Health Canada, addresses the regulatory and research issues that are critical in assessing the safety of the addition of new ingredients to infants.

Download or read book Making Your Own Baby Food written by Mary Dustan Turner and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Three principles are the basis for infant feeding suggestions: 1) infants have rights, all which stem from nourishment; 2) each infant is unique, therefore processed food for an "average" baby is not always proper; 3) all individuals, including infants, must have safeguards to assure food is beneficial and without negative effects. Studies of infant foods and nourishment reveal that infant nourishment is poor, breastfeeding had declined and that behavioural and development problems can be related to diet. Dietary suggestions are given for the prenatal diet. Warnings on the baby food industry include information on additives in processed baby food, food industry scare tactics, and a study on the high cost of processed baby food. Information on breastfeeding, introducing solids into the infant diet, and storage of and traveling with homemade baby food are suggested as alternatives to processed food use. Recipes for high quality food at reasonable prices are included for infant, toddler, and family nutrition.
