About this title

Synopsis

Nutrition in the early years of life is a major determinant of growth and development and it also influences adult health. This report addresses the growing interest in the infant and young child during weaning, in the change from milk to a fully mixed diet, and in nutritional status during weaning. Questions such as when and why to wean and with which food, and how much to give as the diet diversifies, are just some of the issues discussed. The report includes recommendations about how babies should be fed as well as the foods and drinks in their diets.
