a “The average pattera: of-
dietary.:intake ‘of ‘Canadian.
“infants: up‘to:six months: of
. age. indicates. they are. well
-fed and that foods ‘alone are

providing . quantities of
nutrients well . above the
recommended daily: nutrient
intake,” _Stated Jacquelyn
Hall, of the H.J. Heinz.
Company -of- Canada Lid.

Nutritional Staff. —

Mrs, Hall i is co-author ofa
paper produced by members
of the Nutrition Department
at both the food company

and the University of

Toronto and presented at the
annual convention of the
Nutritional Society of
Canada held. at ™” thé
University. of British
Columbia on June 20.

The data reported.in the
presentation came from -an
extensive longitudinal survey

_ of infant nutrition in Toronto

and Montreal, conducted by

' Canada’s _largest

manufacturer of commercial
baby food in close. co-
operation with the National
Research Council.

The survey conducted.
between January °1977- and
February of this year was
based on 403 infants and this
interim report reveals fin-
dings up to and including the

first six months of life.

Seventy-one per cent of
the original 403 infants were
breast-fed during the first
week of life and by six
months, only 21 per cent of

the remaining 354 subjects __.

continued to. be given milk ;

_ from the breast.

One of the main points in
Mrs. Hall’s presentation was

‘the fact that despite

recommendations by _ the
medical professionals,
health professionals and
commercial - baby -. food
manufacturers to delay the
introduction of. solids, a
large number of infants,
both breast and bottle fed,
were eating solids before the
suggested time of three to
four months of life.

The average intake in-
dicated that Canadian in-
fants at this age are well fed.
In spite of the gradual in-
crease and change in the
types of food, excessive
intake of energy or an im-
balance of nutrients did not
occur.

The study also indicated
that in view of the fact that
the per cent of cnergy
contribution by fat at six
months is close to the
recommended lower limit,
health professionals should
take a stronger position in
advising mothers away from
the .use of skimmed and
partially skimmed milk.
