Benefits of Gerber Puree Vegetables with Beef Meatballs
Beef in Gerber Puree Vegetables with Beef Meatballs is rich in iron, calcium, potassium and phosphorus. There is a lot of valuable protein in it, which is necessary for the "building" of new cells and tissues. It also (protein) helps to increase hemoglobin in the blood, protects the baby from the effects of viruses.
It also contains B vitamins.
Potatoes are a source of carbohydrates that provide energy for children. The protein of this vegetable is quite well absorbed. It contains vitamins (B1, B2, B6, C) and minerals (potassium, magnesium, iron). So magnesium is involved in the formation of bones and teeth, has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, and normalizes the nervous system.
Carrots are rich in carotene, which plays an important role in maintaining a healthy state of the skin, organs of vision, mucous membranes, and in strengthening the immune system (kalorizator). Carrot roots contain essential oils and phytoncides. It also contains salts of phosphorus, iodine, calcium, iron, potassium. Potassium, for example, acts as a regulator of water metabolism and has a decongestant effect. nine0003
Peas are rich in fiber and protein. It also contains vitamins (C, E, group B). Minerals (phosphorus, calcium, magnesium) are also present in it. Its benefit lies in the fact that it provides the body with the necessary energy and at the same time does not affect the overall level of sugar.

Baby food without secrets
Children's meat and vegetable canned food is a "lifesaver" for every mother who has started complementary foods for her baby.
Moreover, ready-made canned baby food products annually gain an increasing number of supporters among pediatricians, primarily due to the guaranteed control of state epidemiological surveillance over their production. Bribes and the assurance of manufacturers that canned food is made from high-quality, environmentally friendly products grown, harvested, processed and packaged in compliance with all safety standards. Is food from jars as healthy as advertised in commercials? nine0058
Test participants:
1. "Agusha" (vegetables and beef).2. "Grandma's basket" (beef and cauliflower) .3. "Gerber" (home-style beef with carrots).4. Nestle (vegetables with beef) and Semper (beef stew with vegetables).
The first part of consumer testing took place in the Igromania entertainment center, where parents of young children were invited. This part of the test was focused on their assessment of the appearance of the baby food packaging, its labeling and the organoleptic characteristics of the product (color, smell, taste).
For the purity of the experiment, the participants were first offered the contents of the jars, and then the jars themselves to study the label. nine0003
According to young parents, 1st place was almost unanimously given to "Agusha". The texture of the product was rated as the best for children - neither runny nor thick. A six-month-old kid present at the tasting ate “Agusha” with pleasure, although he usually eats food from jars badly.
Olga: “More like vegetable stew with meat, not meat with vegetables. Meat purees are more pinkish, but here you can see from the color that there are mostly vegetables, and most of all - carrots. nine0003
2nd place went to Gerber food.
Irina: “The texture is like after a blender at home. It smells of meat, meat fibers come across and rice is felt. The child really liked it! Great for older kids! The consistency is larger and the meat is in pieces. There are spices in the texture and taste - pepper is added.
3rd place for Semper.
Tatyana: “This food, which is intended for children from 10 months old, has a texture for very adult children! All ingredients are reviewed. Everything is very large, and a lot of pepper! For an adult, this is very tasty, but it seems to us that for a 10-month-old baby, such an amount of salt and pepper in the diet is not acceptable.” nine0003
4th place - "Grandma's basket".
Ulyana: “By smell, you immediately feel that it contains cauliflower. The child didn’t want to eat it just because of the smell!” Eugene: “I would understand the child if he refused it. The first was much tastier compared to the second. Almost no taste at all. The texture is more uniform compared to the first puree ("Agusha"). Grains of meat are felt more.
5th place for Nestle.
Oksana: “Absolutely no smell and taste. Barely perceptible smell of meat. And the taste is like that of "Grandma's Basket". Natalia: “The grains of meat are visible, but the taste is not felt.
Yes, puree is very similar to the second one, only one is denser in texture, and this one is more watery. The most "none" of all." nine0061 As usual, we conducted the second part of our test at the Tomsk Regional Veterinary Laboratory, whose specialists assessed the nutritional value of the product, as well as the compliance of the contents of baby food jars with the current food safety standards.
Details
Vegetable-based canned food with meat are ready meals for baby food, which include vegetable components and meat, which in most imported, and in recent years, domestic canned vegetable and meat products is no more than 10-15%. nine0002 A product manufactured abroad and entering the Russian market must comply with the labeling requirements of national legislation, that is, have information on the label in Russian. A regulatory document that is not indicated on the product label may be indicated in the contract for its supply to Russia - this is a voluntary matter.
The first question related to safety standards arose already at the stage of studying the label. Only two jars out of five were marked with regulatory documents (TU), according to which the consumer can identify the product (“Agusha” and “Babushkino basket”). According to TU, one puree refers to a vegetable and meat product, the other to a meat and vegetable product, although they do not differ much in composition, since meat is listed second on the label after vegetables. But still, according to the classifier, the TU codes are different. nine0003
But other manufacturers of tested baby food did not indicate their regulatory documents, in accordance with which it is possible to identify the product, on the labels. Although it is for them that the consumer must determine whether the composition of the product, its name, purpose, guaranteed indicators of quality and safety, including the content of vitamins, amino acids and minerals, correspond to those indicated on the package.
Sterilization versus preservatives nine0025
The analysis of food safety carried out in the laboratory (heavy metals, nitrates, the presence of GMOs) did not reveal any deviations, as did the microbiology test in 2 selective samples. There are no complaints about these indicators for all 5 products, which was to be expected, because all samples are sterilized products. Sterilization takes place at a temperature of over 100 degrees, in particular, canned meat and vegetable products are sterilized at a temperature of 113 to 135 degrees for a certain time, which is set depending on the feedstock and production technology, the field of which in such a product all microorganisms and their spores are destroyed. This process is necessary due to the long shelf life of the product - 2 years. And since preservatives in the production of baby food are excluded, sterilization solves this problem. nine0003
Based on the fact that this is a baby food product, canned food should contain, for its intended purpose, a sufficient amount of proteins, amino acids, minerals with an optimal ratio of calcium, phosphorus, a sufficiently small amount of table salt, an optimal amount of fat in relation to proteins and a sufficient set of vitamins .
This is a general requirement for infant formula for young children. The balance of the composition is achieved here due to the presence in the product of beef, leguminous crops, vegetable and butter oils, as well as starch for binding in order to avoid splitting canned food. nine0003
With long-term sterilization, all taste indicators of the product naturally decrease, starch and sugar are partially broken down, enzyme activity decreases, and part of the vitamins are destroyed. Also, as a result of prolonged sterilization, color, smell and taste may change. The most lively, fresh and nutritious canned food for children is one that has a shelf life of up to 1 year. If the period is longer (in all our samples it is 2 years), then such a product is focused more on saturation, and its vitamin and nutritional composition is very weak. nine0003
Details
Vitamins according to SanPinSanPin (sanitary norms and rules) regulates only a part of vitamins - these are B2 (riboflavin), B1 (thiamine), beta-carotene, PP, B3 (niacin).
Vitamins A and C are not included in the list.
In accordance with the regulations, these vitamins do not have to be present in the product, moreover, vitamins are not allowed as an additional enrichment of the nutrition of young children. Vitamin balance should be achieved only through the components of the product. That is, in this case, it is young beef. And already to compensate for the amount of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, a composition is selected that optimizes the vitamin and mineral complex of the product. Speaking of vitamins, it should be noted that in natural products it is possible to detect them only in very small doses, and it is generally difficult to find them in processed and sterilized ones. nine0003
Nowhere on the labeling of our 5 samples is it indicated whether vitamins were added additionally. Nevertheless, we decided to check their presence in the puree. The direction of the search for vitamins was suggested by the composition of the product on the label, where, as a rule, carrot puree and cauliflower were listed first.
Proceeding from this, a study on vitamins A and C was laid. Only vitamin A was found, which was present in all samples, and in “Agusha” it turned out to be the most. Vitamin C was not found in any of the submitted samples. nine0003
It is important to know that according to TU (technical specifications) a product is produced in cases where there is a need to deviate from GOST in technology, or to achieve the final result. According to SanPin, such a product will not cause any complaints, but the underestimation of consumer properties (taste, nutrition) is allowed in TU. Therefore, if a product is produced according to specifications and at the same time, manufacturers declare on the packaging, for example, the huge benefits of its use for growth, brain development, immunity, and other things, the consumer should be interested in the reliability of this information. How does the manufacturer support such claims? In our case, not a single vitamin is indicated on the label. nine0003
It turns out that some degree of growth, health improvement, etc.
is achieved only due to the composition of the puree. For such indicators, the presence of at least calcium, phosphorus and vitamins in the diet is required. They may be there, but the data on the label absolutely does not imply and is not guaranteed exactly how much they are contained in the product. Thus, if the manufacturer writes about some favorable consequences for the body when using his products, then such information must be confirmed on the label. In our testing, the only thing that is guaranteed on all puree samples is that the product is non-GMO, free of dyes, flavors and preservatives, salt and gluten free. nine0003
Label
The labels on food jars are quite informative, they indicate the manufacturer, expiration date. On the labels of imported samples there is a translation of information about the product in Russian.
In Russia, since February 2010, in Decree No. 982, certification of food products has been replaced by mandatory declaration.
The mark of confirmation of conformity is obligatory, and it is applied on all jars submitted for the study! nine0003
In addition to mandatory declaration, baby food is also subject to mandatory state registration. Only 3 cans have a certificate of it (not on the label of "Agushi" and "Gerber"). This circumstance lowered their scores in the laboratory rating of the studied samples, since the certificate on the label is one of the indicators of confirming the safety of the product.
Lab Rating
In terms of nitrates (which are always found in vegetables and fruits) and vitamins, all the presented samples met the norms (see table), but, nevertheless, the highest nitrate indicator (albeit within acceptable limits) is in Agusha. Agusha has similarly high levels of vitamin A.
If we build a rating of children's purees participating in testing, then 1st place is given to "Grandmother's basket" , where all the necessary parameters are indicated on the label: GOST, certificate of state registration of baby food, composition, presence of a vitamin-mineral complex, terms validity.
