FAQ

Freeze-dried baby foods are an effective and nutrient-dense way to feed newborns since they are prepared by extracting moisture from fresh ingredients without sacrificing their natural nutrition. The food is first frozen, and then it is put in a vacuum to remove the frozen water by a process called sublimation, which turns ice into vapor without melting it. This keeps the food’s nutritional value and structural integrity intact.

Here’s how freeze-dried baby foods retain up to 97% of their nutrients:

• Minimal Heat Exposure: In contrast to conventional dehydration techniques that include heat, freeze-drying takes place at low temperatures. Heat-sensitive components, like vitamins and antioxidants, which are frequently destroyed by conventional processing techniques, are preserved in freeze drying.
• Preserving Natural Flavors and Nutrients: Freeze-drying preserves the original flavor, texture, and vital nutrients of the food by eliminating just the water content. This keeps the food more close to its original, fresh form.
• Long Shelf Life Without Preservatives: Freeze-dried Foods have a longer shelf life. Spoilage happens because of moisture, sice, these products lack moisture, they naturally hav a longer shelf life without the need for preservatives
• Easy Rehydration: By simply adding water, milk, or formula, freeze-dried infant food can be easily rehydrated and restored to its original form while maintaining its nutritional value.

Continue nursing while introducing food once the child is six months old. As your baby grows, progressively increase the amount of solid food you feed them on demand, typically two to three times a day.

For every meal, start your infant with 1-2 tsp of rehydrated food and work your way up depending on how hungry and how much your baby needs. Refer to the meal plan shared with each box according to the baby age.

When a baby is six months old and starts eating solid foods, they can start sipping tiny amounts of water, but their primary source of hydration should still be breast milk or formula.

To watch out for any possible allergic responses, introduce one new meal at a time and wait three to five days before introducing another.

Regular wet diapers (6–8 per day), and steady weight gain are indicators that your baby is getting adequate nutrition.

You can begin introducing common allergens, such as dairy, eggs, and peanuts, around six months. The risk of allergies may be reduced by early exposure to some foods, but you should always see your pediatrician, especially if allergies run in the family.
