Organic Beetroot, Sweet Potato & Bok Choy Porridge

Beets are packed with nutrients that are beneficial for a growing child, such as fiber for promoting healthy digestion and folate for supporting development in the early stages of life. Beets also contain a range of plant nutrients such as carotenoids and phenols, which have antioxidant properties and support cellular health. Note: that red beets may cause a change in the color of a baby's poop and urine to bright red, but this is a natural occurrence and should not cause concern.

Sweet potatoes are packed with various nutrients and are particularly rich in beta-carotene, a nutrient that converts to vitamin A in the body, which is essential for maintaining healthy skin, eyesight, and immune system. In addition, sweet potatoes are a good source of vitamin B6 that is beneficial for brain development, and fiber that promotes digestive health and a healthy gut microbiome.

Bok choy, similar to other cruciferous vegetables, is a rich source of essential nutrients. It has high amounts of calcium, vitamins A and B6, and vitamins C and K, which play a crucial role in a baby's growth and development. When combined with iron-rich plant-based foods such as lentils, beans, and tofu, bok choy's high levels of vitamin C can enhance the absorption of iron in a baby's body, which is important for their growth at this stage.
