Foods to Avoid for One-Year-Old
When your child turns 1, it is safe to replace breast milk with whole milk.
Nuts
One of the biggest dangers when feeding 1-year-olds is that they can choke if foods, like nuts, get stuck in their airway. Avoid giving your toddler nuts until he/she learns to chew properly, which usually happens around age 4.
Sweetened Drinks
You should avoid giving 1-year-olds foods and drinks that contain excessive sugar, such as sweetened drinks because sugar can take off the natural flavors of healthy foods. Sweetened drinks can also cause your toddler’s teeth to decay.
Chocolate
It is no secret that you should not offer coffee to 1-year-olds because it contains caffeine. But some people do not know that there is caffeine in chocolate too. Chocolate and other caffeine-containing foods items can disrupt your toddler's sleep cycle.
Candies
Apart from being too much sugary which can cause teeth decay, candies can cause choking hazard for young toddlers.
