Description
Jessica Blankenship and co-authors report on packaged first foods for young children in Southeast Asia, in a 2023 paper. A consortium of UN agencies and civic groups studied seven countries in the region. Packaged baby foods are sold more and more there. Questions hang over their nutrition, their labels, and the rules that govern them.
A diet review found that children aged 6 to 23 months often lack key micronutrients. A survey showed that caregivers use the packaged foods a lot and care about nutrition. Product and policy reviews filled out the picture in each country. The report gives governments a base for stronger rules to protect young child diets in a packaged food market.
