“…However, the median egg consumption was 18 g, and only 11% of the infants consumed more than 50 g of egg per day. Similar to our findings, egg consumption was reported as 18 ± 18 g in a study by Aktac et al 20 In order to meet the requirements for iron and zinc, it is recommended that meat, poultry, fish, or eggs are eaten daily, or as often as possible. 2 The addition of 25 g of meat to a homemade vegetable meal was shown to prevent a decline in hemoglobin levels in infants.…”

“…9,11 Another previous study also showed a higher energy intake (933 kcal/day). 20 In our study, the mean energy intake from complementary food (505 kcal) was higher than the recommended intake, contributing to 62.5% of the total energy. Several agencies have defined the recommended intake of energy from complementary foods.…”

“…In line with our findings, mean protein intake found in previous studies were similar to our results, and energy and protein consumption were reported to be higher than the usual intakes. 8,11,12,20 Studies have shown an association between high protein intake (>14% of the total energy consumption) and the development of obesity later in life due to stimulation of insulin-like growth factor, which results in rapid growth and increased fat accumulation. [4][5][6]27 However, Tang and Krebs found that in breastfed infants, a higher protein intake from meats was associated with greater linear growth and weight gain without excessive adiposity, suggesting that high protein intake may differ between breastfed and formula-fed infants as well as the source of protein.…”

“…18 However, in Turkey, studies on complementary feeding of infants are limited. 19,20 The primary aim of our study was to determine the diversity and nutritional composition of the diets of healthy breastfed infants using complementary feeding indicators, and to determine whether traditional family foods in Turkey are adequate to meet the needs of infants who are still breastfed, since this has not been addressed in detail before. Our secondary aim was to determine dietary macronutrient and micronutrient intake via meal and snack patterns.…”

A AB BS ST TR RA AC CT T O Ob bj je ec ct ti iv ve e: : Many studies have examined the quality of diets in children; however, most were conducted either in industrialized countries, where breastfeeding rates are low, or in socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. The primary aim of our study was to determine the diversity and nutritional composition of the diets of healthy breastfed infants. The secondary aim was to determine dietary macronutrient and micronutrient intake via meal and snack patterns. M Ma at te er ri ia al l a an nd d M Me et th ho od ds s: : We recruited 130 infants aged 9-12 months who attended the well child outpatient clinic. Data were collected using 3-day dietary records completed by the mothers. Daily nutrient intake was calculated using computer software (Ebispro, Stuttgart, Germany; Turkish version: BeBis, Vers 6.1). Means and standard deviations were calculated using descriptive statistics for nutrient intake and mean daily intakes were compared with the recommended dietary allowance/adequate intake reference values. R Re es su ul lt ts s: : Median energy intake was 810 kcal/day. Carbohydrate, lipid, and protein provided was approximately 45%, 43%, and 12% of the total daily energy. Intakes below the recommended daily intakes were found in 100% for niacin, 98% for iron, 96% for pantothenic acid and biotin, 91% for vitamin E, 87% for iodine, 67% for folate, 60% for vitamin C, 48% for manganese, 41% for magnesium, and 31% for zinc. Sodium intake was high in 93% of cases. Seventy five percent of the infants met the minimum dietary diversity. Breakfast was found to contribute the greatest proportion of energy as well as macronutrients and micronutrients acquired during the day. C Co on nc cl lu us si io on ns s: : The study describes in detail both the quality and quantity of diets of a sample of breastfed Turkish infants not consuming fortified foods. Concerns regarding low intake of antioxidants, iron, iodine, niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin, folate, manganese, and magnesium as well as excessive intake of energy, protein, and sodium should be addressed.

Purpose: Mothers' practices of complementary feeding and exclusive breastfeeding may differ relative to various factors. The objectives of this research were to investigate the mothers' practices of their babies' nutrition and the factors affecting them in the sample of Aydın province. Materials and methods: The analytical and cross-sectional designed research was carried out in a total of 23 Family Health Centers in the Efeler district of Aydın province. The research sample consisted of 350 mothers with 12-24 months old babies. The research data was collected using data collection forms, which were filled out by face-to-face interviews with mothers after their verbal approval was obtained. Results: The exclusive breastfeeding duration was 6 (0-9) months, and the time to start complementary feeding was 6 (4-10) months. The exclusive breastfeeding duration of babies of high school graduate mothers was shorter. Babies in extended families had longer exclusive breastfeeding duration, and there was a weak positive correlation between the numbers of family members and exclusive breastfeeding duration. Mothers with lower income levels started complementary feeding earlier, and mothers who started complementary feeding earliest were high school graduates among the education groups. Conclusion:The research showed that the rate of starting complementary feeding early (30.6%) was not low, and mothers had insufficient knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding and appropriate complementary feeding practices. Therefore, training courses on baby nutrition should be given to mothers.
