The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

To reduce gas colic in babies, these foods are generally easier to digest:

For nursing mothers: Bananas, rice, boiled potatoes, squash, carrots, yogurt, kefir, oats, olive oil-based foods without spices, chamomile tea.

For babies starting solids (6 months+): Bananas, applesauce (cooked, not raw), pears, sweet potatoes, squash, carrots, rice cereal, yogurt.

Foods to avoid: Cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, dried legumes, onions and garlic, excessive spices, cow's milk protein (in some babies), raw apples, and grapes. These vary from baby to baby — a food that causes gas in one baby may not bother another.

If your baby has significant and persistent gas colic, keeping a feeding diary to observe which foods trigger it is the most reliable approach. For prolonged discomfort, it's helpful to consult your pediatrician.
