baby's first food

[Guest guest]

I would like to ask why it is better to offer a baby basmati rice broth instead

of brown rice for her first food. Vicky

 

Hi Vicki - of course this will be a question on minds of many who hear of the

idea. I would like to defer to SHirish, and will not be surprised if there is

different opinion. This is what I've been taught, and not only my personal

preference with the high arginine amino acid balance in brown rice, but with the

early postpartum days as well, where

digestive system tissues are very delicate and digestive power weaker, we find

the basmati rice gentler, not as rough and drying on delicate tissues. THis is

what I've been taught, and I find clients nearly always prefer it also. With my

focus on immediate postpartum emphasis, I rarey am involved with the first foods

stage of life.
