CARBOHYDRATE COMPOSITION, VISCOSITY, SOLUBILITY, AND SENSORY ACCEPTANCE OF SWEETPOTATO- AND MAIZE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY FOODS

Carbohydrate composition, viscosity, solubility, and sensory acceptance of sweetpotato- and maize-based complementary foods

Background: Cereal-based complementary foods from non-malted ingredients form a relatively high viscous porridge.Therefore, excessive dilution, usually with water, is required to reduce the viscosity to be appropriate for infant feeding.The dilution invariably leads to energy and nutrient thinning, that is, the reduction of energy and nutrient dens
