Cooking oil not recommended for infants –  Health experts

Cooking oil not recommended for infants –  Health experts 

Health experts have issued a strong warning to parents and guardians against the practice of giving babies cooking oil as a remedy for colic and digestive disorders.

They emphasize that this home remedy lacks scientific support and may lead to adverse health effects in infants.

Babies have delicate digestive systems, and introducing substances like cooking oil can disrupt their natural balance, potentially causing further gastrointestinal issues.

Experts advise that rather than resorting to unproven methods, parents should consult healthcare professionals for appropriate guidance and treatment options for colic and digestive problems.

Additionally, using cooking oil could pose a choking hazard and create an incorrect perception that such remedies are safe.

Pediatricians recommend focusing on evidence-based approaches, including proper feeding techniques and soothing practices, to alleviate discomfort in infants.

Prioritizing infants’ health and safety requires a cautious approach, rather than relying on traditional but potentially harmful remedies.
