Description

Steffany Martins Moreira and colleagues study first foods beyond milk for babies in the western Brazilian Amazon, in a 2026 analysis. Data come from the MINA-Brazil birth cohort in Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre, with 774 children seen at one year and 854 at two years. Diet was captured by a day-long recall at each visit.

Quality indicators follow World Health Organization advice: food variety, meat or egg eating, ultra-processed food and days with no fruit or vegetables. Meat or egg eating reached 79 percent at age one and 89.9 percent at age two in the reported figures. Ultra-processed food was also common, a mixed picture. Social and health factors are modelled in layers from distant to close causes.
