A couple of days back a new mom emailed me to ask ” Can I add Salt to my Baby food” due to a volume of emails I receive everyday, just sent out a short reply that she shouldn’t add salt to baby food till 1 year. Immediately a reply landed in my inbox asking the reason behind the  No sugar no salt rule for babies till 1 year.

This generation of parents are very inquisitive and can be satisfied only with a detailed researched article. So decided to tackle this no sugar no salt rule for today’s article.

why no salt and sugar for babies until 1 year

Why No Salt for Babies till 1 year ?

Let’s reason out some basic concepts first,

” Why do you think that your baby needs salt in his/ her food ? “

You think that the reason your baby is not accepting the first foods because it is bland.

This is where most of us are mistaken, your baby doesn’t show interest in the food, as the baby is used to breastmilk and doesn’t like being fed with new unknown food.

For someone who has tasted only breastmilk till 6 months of age and who never knows the taste of salt before, what is the need to add salt to the food.

He can’t miss something that he hasn’t experienced yet !!!!

Harmful effects of adding salt to Baby Food

A baby’s salt requirement per day is less than 1 g per day (0.4g of sodium) and this is mostly met by the breastmilk or formula. So any extra salt will be a burden on the tiny kidneys and the kidney’s will not be able to function properly due to the excessive load. This may lead to kidney disease and it has also been proven to cause hypertension in the adult life. Excessive intake of salt in childhood has also been attributed to diseases as osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory illnesses.¹

The SACN ² recommends the following Salt Requirement for babies, toddlers, and children

 

Age Maximum Salt Intake
0-6 months  < 1 g (0.4g of sodium)
6-12 months < 1 g (0. 4g of sodium)
1-3 years 2 g (0.8g of sodium)
4-6 years 3 g (1.2g of sodium)
7-10 years 5 g ( 2 g of sodium)
11 years and above 6 g (2.4 g of s0dium)

Some people advice to add a pinch of salt to baby food which is also equally dangerous.

While the amount of a pinch of salt may vary, Wiki calculates that 1 pinch of salt = ¼ gram.

One pinch of salt added to three meals a day equals to more than 0.75 g of salt that in addition to the salt in breastmilk or formula may skyrocket the salt consumed by the baby per day.

How to add flavor to baby food without adding salt?

You can make your baby food more interesting and tasty by adding spices appropriate to the age of the baby.

Learn ” How, when and what spices to be added to Baby Food”

How to know whether commercial Baby & children food is high in Salt?

While most of us prefer Homemade Baby food, there are few situations like traveling with babies where in we have to depend on commercial baby food.

Not only for babies, even food for children may also be high in salt, and you should always be careful while selecting the food.

The salt content is usually given as figures for sodium. As a rough guide, food containing more than 0.6g of sodium per 100g is considered high in salt ³. You can workout the amount of salt in foods by multiplying the amount of sodium by 2.5.

Why No Sugar for Babies until 1 year?

Many mommies think that no sugar for babies also means no sweet foods for babies and refrain from giving nutritious fruits for their little ones.

By sugar, we always mean the “White Refined Sugar” not the natural sweetness of fruits and natural sweeteners.

Why is sugar harmful to Babies below 1 year?

1. Sugar is refined by lot of chemical processes which may be harmful to children.

2. Excess sugar may cause caries and tooth decay in children.

3. Excess of sugar may depress immunity.

4. Research has also shown that children fed with high sugar diet were prone to cardiovascular, diabetes and obesity.

What to substitute for sugar in baby foods?

Although your baby doesn’t need sweetening of foods daily, you can add natural sweeteners to Kheers, Porridges, baby-friendly cakes, and desserts.

Natural Sweeteners for Baby food

1. Any fruit can be added to baby food to make them naturally sweet

2. Dates Syrup (After 8 months)

3. Honey (After 1 year)

    Do you have a source for babies kidneys being unable to process salt? I see that a lot online but have never found a source to back it up (in fact, most of the studies on salt and infant kidney function are related to hyponatremia vs hyper).

      Welcome 🙂 Weight is not a matter to be worried if baby is active and healthy. It’s time to introduce nutritious vegetables and fruits. If you want to add her weight please try sathumaavu health mix. While introducing, give little initially and follow 3 day rule.

You can get 9 months baby food chart with nutritious recipes from our website.If baby hates steamed veggies try roasted :). He would start showing interest on foods when his feeding abilities develop. There are few effective home remedies for cough. Please find it in the below link. Hope this works.

    Hi Dr. Hemapriya,

    Is mishri (rock sugar) good for babies? My son is 5.5 months old and I have been adding just a pinch for his morning (multigrain) kanji. I didn’t see your website until after I started my son on kanji (1 tbsp (dry) .. once a day). So far he seems to be ok with it. I am under pressure to increase his kanji intake to twice a day but I would rather introduce the fruit and veggie purees before doubling his kanji doseage. I am also under pressure to start feeding dal rice (paruppu saadham) but I want to wait until my son has completed 7 months before I do so. What are your thoughts?

    Looking forward to your reply ..
    CHeers,
    Aarti

      Hi Sana,

      Thanks for bringing this up, Iodine was added to salt to prevent goiter which was prevalent in 1920’s and that ic continuing till date, I have given the natural sources of iodine below, if your family has these foods regularly then no need to take iodized salt, plain table salt will do.We can get iodine naturally by eating saltwater fish and seafood, kelp and other sea vegetables as well as vegetables grown in soils that contain iodine. Dairy products also provide iodine if the animals graze on plants growing in iodine-rich soils.

      Yes you can definitely use karupatti as sweetening agent, it is obtained from palm sugar while jaggery is obtained from sugarcane

    Hi,
    One of the senior most paed in Mumbai, Dr. Pankaj Parekh explained to me (when my baby was 6 months old) that normal salt & sugar is MUST in babies food.
    Logic – we live in india & thus we perspire. So if we dont add salt in babies food, baby will get cramps in legs. All the internet stuff is mainly written by people living abroad where they dont perspire so much.

    Infact, Hema – if u read ur own article – you have only given cons of excess of sugar. There is not a single reason why we cant add normal quantity of sugar in babies food.
    Infact one paed in my vicinity expalined to me how processed white sugar is more hygenic than Mishri.

      Yes I agree that we perspire a lot, but breastmilk adapts in such a way that the salt content is adjusted in it according to climatic changes, that is the reason why we stress Breastmilk is the most nutritious food for your baby. Whole life we are going to be eating foods with salt what is wrong if we can avoid salt for just 6 months in a baby’s life and promote healthy eating patterns in children.Regarding sugar, I have mentioned not to add sugar onlt till a year. Jaggery is one of the richest source of Iron and makes a perfect natural sweetner.

          Hi Neha,

          When you start weaning, don’t add any sweetner, he may like it without it too, so wait for a month if he takes his food without sweetners then well and good continue the same till 1 year or else, add a teaspoon of organic jaggery powder or syrup to his food after 7 month
