Baby Food?
I (and my wife of course!) are expecting my firstborn (son) in about two weeks. I've been at the supermarket looking at the enormous aisle of baby food.
It is ALL high glycemic index CARBS. Ok, I don't want to be a diet nut or anything, but is this RIGHT? I saw dozens and dozens of selections; corn, beets, peaches, pears, apples, beans, and so on. -NO- protein or fat in the little baby food jars. Almost every single one was something sweet.
What's up with this? Can this possibly be good for babies? Shouldn't they be getting something more Zone-like? What's the composition of breast milk? It can't be all carbs can it?
Why is baby food so prevalently high GI carbo?
