Can Baby Food Lead to Issues with Brain Development? Which food better to avoid?

Try to avoid baby food with artificial colorings, sugar additives (eg: High fructose corn syrup). Always read the labels before buying any packaging food. Baby food to avoid/ reduce intake: Rice cereals/ snacks made with rice flour might be high in arsenic (heavy metal); Juice which is high in sugar but lack of fiber, might cause tooth decay. But to be honest, it’s quite hard to avoid them totally since most of us are working parents and eat out frequently. So we have to increase the antioxidant levels in our kids, and enhancing the liver detoxification function by giving the right nutrients to kids. From my experience in genetic consultation, I found that many kids are genetically lacking of antioxidants. Toxins/ heavy metals are everywhere nowadays. By lacking of antioxidants and poor liver detoxification, the contaminants from food/ water or air might affect the kids’ cognitive learning and health condition.
