Discover The Safest Cheeses For Baby

Cheese is a excellent food for babies. It is packed with calcium (the importance of which we discuss here) - and it also provides protein, vitamin A, vitamin D and vitamin B12. In fact, the vitamin B12 content of cheese makes it an important part of the diet for vegetarian babies, as this is a nutrient often derived from meat.

cheese對寶寶來說是相當好的食物,它有豐富的鈣,蛋白質,維他命A,D,B12. 維他命Ｂ12也同時是素食寶寶非常重要的營養來源之一 (因為維他命B12的取得通常來自肉食).

Cheese also provides energy and is ideal for babies who require a calorie rich diet.

對那些需要更多卡洛理的寶寶來說,CHEESE更是精力來源的補充品.

To make things easy for us parents, cheese tastes wonderful, many babies enjoy it... and it it can be easily incorporated into their meals.

而對企圖讓每件事變的更容易的父母,CHEESE嚐期來的美味,不但很多寶寶都非常喜愛. 且CHEESE也很容易就可以和其他食物一起搭配混入食用.

This page look at the best types of cheese for babies... and discover a little known fact about cheese that makes it an even MORE desirable part of baby's menu!

When can my baby eat cheese?

Guidelines for the introduction of cheese vary from one part of the world to another.

In the UK, for example, cheese is typically included in the infant diet from around 6 months of age. Guidelines in the US, however, are more conservative, with some sources suggesting waiting until 8-9 months to introduce cheese - and others go so far as to rule out dairy products altogether until at baby is at least 12 months of age.

在英國,cheese很典型地被加入在6個月以上的寶寶食譜當中.而美國則較保守的建議寶寶在8-9個月後,甚至是1歲以後再做食用.

Cheese isn't your typical dairy product, however. The milk protein commonly responsible for dairy allergy is largely broken down in cheese as it matures and cheese is often well tolerated by individuals with sensitivities to dairy products. The same applies to yogurt, which is why many pediatricians will agree that it is safe to introduce both of these products prior to baby's first birthday.

然而cheese並不是我們主要的乳製品來源. 牛奶裡的蛋白質也就是常誘發 "乳製品過敏"的主因已經在cheese的熟成中被破壞,因此對於哪些對乳製品過敏的人在食用cheese過後通常並不會有過敏的反應.

It's certainly worth delaying the introduction of cheese if there is a family history of food allergy (particularly an allergy to dairy products), or if your baby has asthma or eczema. This is because cheese may act as a 'trigger food' for these conditions.

但如果是針對那些有食物過敏的家族病使的寶寶 (特別是乳製品過敏),確實必須小心地來延後食用cheese.亦或是您的寶寶有氣喘或是濕疹的疾病也因當延緩食用cheese,因為cheese有可能成為這些疾病的誘發物.

As with all new foods, you should talk to your doctor before introducing cheese to your baby.

當然,對寶寶來說所有陌生的食物,在第一食用時,都應該先諮詢您的醫生.

The little known benefit of including cheese in baby's diet

鮮少人知的好處!!

Well, you may not be aware that cheese can actually play a part in the prevention of tooth decay! Your baby does not even need to swallow the cheese - merely chewing it is enough to receive its benefits!

你可能不知道cheese還扮演著預防蛀牙的角色!寶寶甚至不需要將cheese吞下,只需要咀嚼就足以避免蛀牙的發生.

Exactly HOW cheese protects the teeth is still a point of debate, but there are several reasons why this may be so.

cheese到底如何保護牙齒這一點還相當受到爭議,但是有幾各可能如下:

For one thing, chewing cheese promotes saliva production, which both neutralizes harmful acids in the mouth and washes them away. In fact, it is believed that cheese stops the bacteria on the teeth from turning into the acids that demineralize tooth enamel. 

有可能之一,咀嚼cheese增加口水的產出,促使中合口中有害的酸性物並且將他們帶走.而事實上,人們相信cheese阻止了牙齒中的細菌變成酸性物質來破壞砝瑯質.

Further, cheese contains plenty of calcium and phosphorus - so eating it replaces minerals lost from the tooth enamel, essentially strengthening the teeth.

除此,cheese擁有大量的鈣和磷,所以食用cheese代替琺瑯質中失去的礦物質.

If you've always enjoyed finishing a meal with a cheese board, then this is a good reason to continue to do so - and to get baby to have a nibble, too!

The safest cheeses for baby

You'll probably remember from pregnancy that there were certain cheeses you had to avoid, because they may contain listeria (a food poisoning bacteria). In general, it's actually unpasteurized soft cheeses that pose this risk - cheese made with pasteurized milk (even soft cheeses) are now considered to be safe for pregnant women.

還記得在懷孕的過程中有幾種cheese是需要被避免的因為那些cheese可能含有"李氏桿菌".總體來說, 比較軟的且沒有經過巴氏消毒的cheese可能含有此種風險. 那些有經過巴氏消毒的即使是軟cheese現在也都已經被認為對孕婦是安全的.

This being said, there has been no change to medical recommendations for feeding these types of cheeses to babies. The safest option, therefore, is to offer only the following types of cheese to your little one (although it is still important to ensure that these are made with pasteurized milk).

以下cheese是被認定為對寶寶食用是安全的選擇.

• Cheddar
