Yogurt
6 months and up
⚡ Quick answer
Yogurt can be given from 6 months — the rule 'milk is forbidden but yogurt is allowed' is correct because fermentation changes the protein; it should be unsweetened and made from pasteurized milk.
How to serve it by age?
Plain, unsweetened, whole-fat yogurt — alone or with fruit puree. 50-60 ml a day is enough.
The amount can increase; recipes with vegetables and yogurt can be added.
100-120 ml a day; ayran (unsalted/low-salt homemade) is also an option.
⚠️ Allergen information
In babies with cow's milk protein allergy, yogurt can also cause a reaction; if symptoms appear, consult a doctor.
📌 Watch out for these
- Most ready-made fruit yogurts contain sugar — read the label, buy plain.
- Homemade yogurt should be made from pasteurized milk; never from raw milk.
