What kind of water is good for the baby?
From the mistakes most often made by novice parents, we learn how to properly brew the milk to the baby. The first thing to solve is what kind of water is used to brew the milk?
Water that meets drinking water standards is roughly divided into tap water, mineral water, and purified water. Mineral water, as its name implies, is water containing very rich minerals. If you drink alcohol for a long time, it may cause excessive absorption of certain elements in your body and affect your health.
Pure water refers to the physical removal of industrial contaminants, microorganisms, and impurities from water, as well as the removal of available various macroelements and most trace elements of water. If you drink pure water for a long time, it may interfere with the stability of the internal environment. It is because of its purity, lack of probiotics that should be contained in the water, etc. Long-term drinking will lead to insufficient nutrient intake.
It is best to use tap water after boiling, that is, boiled water. The tap water is sterilized, or there may be some residual chloride and nitrite. Therefore, it is boiled for 3 minutes for dechlorination, and after cooling, it is used to wash the milk powder. Besides, you can't use rice soup, noodle soup, soy milk, etc., You can not double the milk nutrition of the two, but also affect the growth and development of children.
