How old can a baby start eating oil and salt?

Patient's question:

I don't know if he has this condition, and his mental state isn't good either. Could you please tell me at what age can the baby start eating oil and salt?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, after adding complementary foods for 4 to 8 months, you can start adding oil and salt. There are walnut oils available in the market that you can eat. Pay attention to the quality. Start with small amounts, as too much salt is not good. If you start with a lot of salt, it will be difficult to control. Hello, if the child doesn't like to eat, it may be due to poor digestion or zinc deficiency. If the child has poor digestion, you can give them medication like Mimi Ai, Xiao Er Jian Pi San, or Xiao Er Jian Wei Xiao Shi Pian to regulate it. If the child is zinc deficient, you can give them Gluconate Zinc Oral Solution. Pay attention to a diversified and scientifically balanced diet to improve the child's appetite. Eat some vegetables, oysters, animal organs, nuts, and soy products appropriately. Wish the baby a healthy and happy growth!
