INCREASE NUTRIENT DENSITY OF YOUR BABY'S MEAL
Seaweed is rich in many micronutrients and essential minerals, such as iron and calcium.
HOW TO INTRODUCE (+6 MONTHS)
You can buy dried seaweed powder or blend the dried seaweed sheets in a spice grinder or food processor until it turns into little flakes or fine powder. Sprinkle on baby's vegetables, add to purees, or blend into butter.
I like to use nori as it has a mild flavor and is low in sodium
