Baby cereals, various cereal-based

Baby cereals are cereal-based foods made for infants. This entry covers various products as supplied, including oat-based cereals and mixed cereal and fruit varieties. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with some protein and fat. Per 100g, the supplied data show 72g of carbohydrate, including 24g of sugars, alongside 11g of protein and 710mg of calcium.

Calcium supports the development and maintenance of bones and teeth, while protein is needed for growth and tissue repair. The sugar figure represents total sugars and does not distinguish naturally occurring sugars from added sugars. Nutrient content varies between products, and preparation with milk or water changes the amounts per weight of prepared cereal. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
