What the AI looks for in Kids & Baby Yogurts
- Added sugar
- No added sugar for children under two; keep it minimal for older kids Pediatric dietary guidance advises against added sugars for under-twos, and many kids' yogurts are heavily sweetened.
- Milk fat
- Whole milk for babies and toddlers Young children need dietary fat, and low-fat versions are not recommended for infants.
- Introduction age
- Plain whole milk yogurt can be introduced as a solid food around six months, unless a pediatrician advises otherwise Yogurt is a common early food, and it is also an early allergen exposure to cow's milk.
- Format
- Cups for spoon-feeding; tubes and pouches for older kids on the go Pouches and tubes encourage sucking rather than spoon skills and are often the sweeter products.
Brands that matter
- Stonyfield: YoBaby for infants and YoKids for older children.
- Siggi's: Lower-sugar options suited to older kids.
- Chobani: Kids tubes and pouches with less sugar than older kids' brands.
- Danimals: Popular with kids but generally sweeter.
What to avoid
- Flavored tubes and cartoon-branded cups for children under two
- Low-fat or nonfat yogurt for infants
- Products with artificial sweeteners or colors for young children
Questions
Do I need a special baby yogurt?
