Ingredients: Choose baby food without modified food starch or added sugar because they contain empty calories. To find out if your baby can tolerate a specific food, buy baby food with one ingredient instead of a combination.
Soy-free: To prevent your baby from getting an allergy, choose soy-free organic baby food as soy is a known baby allergen. Ask your pediatrician for the other possible food allergens to avoid.
