• First of all, make sure that your child should not drink juice at any time of the day.
• In addition, the juice used by your child must be completely healthy, natural and fresh.
• Also, be careful not to pour juice into your child’s milk bottle and give him juice little by little with a small spoon. For example, give him one spoon and then two spoons of juice in the first days.
• We recommend that you dilute the juice with water at a ratio of 1 to 3 so that it is not difficult for your child to digest.
• Note that you should start giving juice to your child with a single fruit such as apple or carrot so that their digestive system gets used to juice over time.
• Before that, make sure that your child is not allergic to any particular juice.
• Do not use raw vegetables and fruits in 6 months to 7 months.
• At 8 months old, you can slowly give your baby raw fruits along with juice.
• Finally, we recommend that you use mild and moderate juices such as apple, carrot, and pear at the beginning.
