Apple Puree for Babies Benefits

Apples are a great source of vitamin C to support the immune system. The fiber in apples is excellent for gut health and promotes the growth of beneficial probiotics in the gut. A wide variety of fiber is essential for optimal gut health and one of the reasons why whole fruits such as apples are great for your baby.

Raw apples are a common choking hazard for babies according to solid starts; thus, making homemade applesauce for babies is a great way to introduce apples into your bub’s diet!

I added a tsp of ground flax seeds as they are an excellent source of additional nutrients, including the essential omega three fats for brain health. Babies can have flax seeds in small amounts and score a 4/5 nutritional rating from solid starts. Flax seeds are an excellent source of fiber for gut health and an excellent source of magnesium. A mineral that we all need to ensure we are getting enough of dietarily as it is one of the most common nutritional deficiencies.
