Taking into account the need to update knowledge on infant feeding, is that the Ministry of Health (MINSAL) directed an update of the document entitled: “GUIDE TO FOOD FOR CHILDREN UNDER 2 YEARS OF AGE EATING GUIDE TO ADOLESCENCE.”, developed in 2014, and last edition in 2016.

This new text will address those factors that health professionals should take into account in the individual care and guidance of children and their families, and provides general recommendations, based on the available scientific evidence and expert recommendations, focusing on the normal feeding that a healthy full-term child should receive.
