FORT MYERS, Fla. – New research finds that home-cooked baby and infant foods are not necessarily superior to store-bought varieties. Dr. Annette St. Pierre-MacKoul joins us in the studio to discuss this and more. Home-cooked meals vs. Commercial meals Poultry based– 16% to 27% Seafood based– 19% to 7% Red-meat based– 21% to 35% Vegetable-based– 44% to 31% Primary vegetable onions carrots Amount of vegetables 2 to 3 Energy 26% more Protein & Fat 44% more Met ED standard– 50% to 65% Exceeded ED standard– 50% Cost $0.43 $0.90 Conclusions: Increased fats and energy density = obesity. Commercial only meals expose child to less variety. Mix of home and commercial is best! Concern: Commercial has high red meat and low fish. Home cooked have 6-77% more nutrients than commercial. Watch the ED and fat in home cooked meals.
