🌱 Why is it nourishing?
With its natural sugars and potassium, banana is a gentle, energy-giving option for babies starting solids. Its soft, smooth texture makes swallowing easier for 6+ month babies discovering spoon feeding. Because it is naturally sweet, it lets natural flavours guide your baby's emerging palate without any added sugar or salt, and its fibre content can support gentle digestion.
