Iron deficiency anemia is common in the post six-month-old infant and the toddler. Why does this happen? What food sources should be served to correct this problem?

What will be an ideal response?


Infants and toddlers often resist the transition from milk to iron-rich or iron-enriched solid foods. They may be reluctant to accept these foods because of their taste, texture, or difficulty to chew. Iron-enriched cereals are the best iron-source food to first introduce to this age group. Other iron-fortified grain products, such as breads and crackers fortified with iron, are also ideal finger foods for toddlers.
