New US dietary guidelines include recs for babies and toddlers for first time

Updated December 30, 2020

This first guideline also suggests introducing "nutrient-dense" foods to infants at 6 months of life, along with "potentially allergenic foods." "As focused on the Birth-24 months, generally we're pleased with the recommendations and the key messaging of making 'every bite count,'" said pediatrician Dr. Steven Abrams, who chairs the American Academy of Pediatrics committee on nutrition, via email.

第一个指南还建议在婴儿6个月大的时候给他们提供“营养丰富的”食物，以及“可能引起过敏的食物”。美国儿科学会营养委员会主席、儿科医生史蒂文·艾布拉姆斯(Steven Abrams)在电子邮件中表示:“就出生24个月的婴儿而言，总的来说，我们对这些建议和关键信息感到满意，即‘每一口都要算数’。

"Recommendations align well with AAP policy supporting exclusive breastfeeding for about 6 months with introduction of peanut-containing foods at 4 to 6 months in infants at high risk of peanut allergy."

建议与儿科学会的政策很一致，该政策支持在婴儿出生后约6个月内纯母乳喂养，并在4至6个月时给花生过敏高风险的婴儿喂养含花生的食物。”

Possible areas of nutritional concern in baby's development revolve around iron, zinc and vitamin D. Because breast milk doesn't contain adequate amounts of vitamin D unless the mother is supplementing at high levels, the guidelines recommend providing infants with supplemental vitamin D beginning soon after birth.

在婴儿的发育过程中，营养方面可能会涉及铁、锌和维生素D。由于母乳中维生素D含量不足，除非母亲大量补充，指南建议婴儿在出生后不久就开始补充维生素D。

Introducing peanuts, eggs, cow's milk products, tree nuts, wheat, soy, and shellfish and fish with other complementary foods could reduce a child's risk of developing a food allergy.将花生、鸡蛋、牛奶、坚果、小麦、大豆、贝类和鱼类与其他补充食物一起食用，可以降低儿童食物过敏的风险。
