    • Public Health

    Background:

    • Infant feeding practices significantly influence long-term health outcomes.
    • Understanding additive use in infant diets is crucial for public health initiatives.
    • Breastfeeding duration and formula supplementation patterns vary widely.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the feeding patterns and additive usage in infants.
    • To identify factors influencing the choice and type of additives used.
    • To assess awareness of the health implications of common additives.

    Main Methods:

    • A study involving 437 infants aged 0-12 months was conducted.
    • Data collection utilized interviews and questionnaires across 11 Maternal Child Health Centres.

  • Breastfeeding duration and the types of additives in formula, drinks, and pacifiers were recorded.

    • Main Results:

    • 99 mothers never breastfed; 146 breastfed for less than 5 months.
    • Sweetening agents (sucrose, honey, syrups) and vitamin C were common additives.
    • Salt and salt-containing preparations comprised 60% of additives upon solid food introduction.
    • Lone mothers and certain ethnic groups showed higher additive use.
    • Older mothers consumed less sugar and gave less to their infants.

    Conclusions:

    • Significant use of sweetening agents and salt in infant diets was observed.
    • Maternal factors like marital status and ethnicity influenced additive choices.
    • Awareness of dental risks associated with sugar was reported by most mothers.
