Abstract

Objetive: to develop a guideline proposal of food complement for children ages 6-12 months. M aterials and meth ods: this research was carry out in three phases: 1 phase was cross sectional study to characterize the food complement for
191 children, the second and third phases were experimental process to define what complementary nutrition is (foods,
recipes, and acceptability of food). Results: recommendation about complementary nutrition for children at different ages was developed. Children ages 6-8 months can eat pure of fruits or juice, vegetables and ground meat without salt

Children ages 10-12 can introduce legumes with or without skin prepared like a pure without salt and spices added fat, while the kids are growing, they may increase their portion sizes and the consistency of food can be changed according their
tolerance and acceptation. Conclusion: complementary nutrition begun early in 50% of the children studied. The food
