The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Olive oil can be safely used from 6 months onward in the complementary food period. Extra virgin olive oil should be preferred and added raw after cooking — this preserves nutritional value and makes digestion easier for the baby. A teaspoon is enough to start, and can be increased over time. If you notice any allergic signs in your baby, consult your doctor.
