When a child becomes bigger, parents ask themselves: what kind of food can be given to a child? To cook it yourself or to buy ready-made lure of industrial production? But then another question arises, from what raw materials is the baby food made, and what technology is used in its preparation?
Cooking ourselves
Surely your mother always tells you that the best lure, is a self-cooked mashed potatoes with carrots or zucchini? After all, it was you who grew on such a diet! However, it is worth remembering that you and your mom grew up at a time when the environmental situation was not as daunting as it is today. At that time, they did not even know what GMOs were, and fruits and vegetables were only seasonal, just those that grow in the area in which they live.
Naturally, no one will argue that it is impossible for a child to give homemade food. However, if soup or mashed potatoes are prepared at home, you should carefully choose the products, since no one will give you a guarantee that the vegetables and fruits sold on the market are environmentally friendly, that they have not been treated with harmful fertilizers, that during transportation and their storage is not broken technology! Such a guarantee can only be obtained if you (or your relatives) are the "producer" of these vegetables and fruits.
To ensure the maximum quality of products used for the preparation of children's complementary foods, vegetables and fruits are grown on a bio-farm (European). On this farm chemicals are not used, and cows graze in exceptionally clean meadows.
Such bio-farms are by all rules located far from busy highways and industrial zones. Weeds that grow on similar farms are removed mechanically, without the use of "chemistry"! Products grown in this way contain 10% (if compared with products grown by modern technology) more minerals, vitamins and other nutritional components.
Meat, from which ecological lure is made for children, does not contain antibiotics, growth stimulants, hormones. After all, animals eat only natural fodders, without admixtures of artificial components, because pastures, on which cattle graze environmentally friendly, because there are also strict requirements.
Special marking
For eco-friendly baby food for the first time, Europeans started talking, who also invented jars with an eco-friendly product to put the BIO badge. Such marking under European laws is placed only on bio-organic products. The presence of BIO marking on children's food packaging ensures that all stages of manufacturing: raw materials for baby food, packaging and transportation of ecological products are strictly controlled by the EU, therefore, dyes, artificial preservatives and flavors are not used in the manufacturing process.
Quality control
In any civilized European country, there is a law on BIO-organic production and agriculture, where the highest demands are placed on food for children's food. In addition, a special independent monitoring body has been established, issuing a bio-organic certificate, which confirms that the products meet the standards. The presence on the food package for children of the BIO marking, with reference to this body, ensures that the product content fully meets the official bio-prescriptions of the European Union and that the product is certified.
Such products undergo many different analyzes: a large number of samples of raw materials for baby food, and then a ready-made food for children. The production of bio-nutrition for children without their own laboratories is not complete. Due to ultra-modern technical equipment, it is possible to detect about 800 conceivable residues of harmful substances in small enough doses. As soon as the harmlessness of the original product is confirmed, it is allowed for further use.
Of course, parents will have to choose which meal suits their child most, but with more information, it will be much easier. The main thing is that this choice should be correct.
