Healthy Meals for Infants The Baby food diet is one of the recent diet fads to have hit tinsel town. By adhering to the Baby Food Diet, a dieter replaces all forms of adult meals with extremely soft foods that are mashed, bland or pureed in order to maintain a standard of food that is usually served to infants. On the one hand, the Baby food diet is termed as being extremely healthy and replete with vitamins while being free from any chemical additives or colors. The portions in the baby food diet, however, are extremely tiny and small but eventually help the dieter to get over hunger pans and the temptation to overeat. But the likelihood of bingeing on food, after the diet is though is a very high possibility. The diet has recently taken shape and as such there are no specific guidelines or rules on the kinds of foods to eat. But the diet works when the dieter sticks to eating only baby food throughout the day or till the duration of the diet. Some dieters on the other hand consume at least one adult meal during the day while eating only baby food as substitutes for adult meals.
There is no mention of exercise in addition to following the diet. Most dieticians are of the opinion that since this diet has been a recent trend, it is still early days to mention or add exercise as part of the dietary schedule. From a nutritional point of view the diet seems to have healthy connotations with the addition of plenty of fruits, vegetables and necessary nutrients for the body. However what is not known is how long the weight of the dieter will be maintained to an optimum level with the long term practice of this diet. Nutritionists are still in the process of studying the veracity of the baby food diet in addition to the long term implications.
