I have a confession to make, as a chiropractor who believes that the health of a child begins prenatally and is further establish in the infant/toddler years, I have never been a big supporter of Gerber Baby Food. I’m a believer in natural food for babies and in the past decade or so there have been several baby food brands who offer natural and even organic baby foods. But, I have to say that Gerber has come a long way since those “bad old days” of additives and fillers and for all intents and purposes they seem to be not only “on the infant/toddler nutritional health bandwagon,” but in many ways leading the parade! Visiting their website, gerber.com, can actually provide excellent health education for new parents. It discusses nutritional needs for infants and toddlers and gives the latest research on what’s bad and what good-but-needs-improving when it comes to the nutritional health of children. In fact, I’ve recommended the website to several of my pregnant patients!
