What Reviewers Are Saying
'Its content is thought provoking, and it cleverly brings all of the research together, allowing for further reading should the practitioner so wish. One example of the evidence based recommendations the book offers is the identification of beef as a good first food for a child aged 5-7 months once they can take food from a spoon; the research indicated that beef increased a child's zinc intake compared to giving fortified baby cereals as first foods. The book's accessible layout means the first two chapters give a good overview of the weaning process, while the final three chapters break down the dietary requirements into finer detail.'
