Question 3

can eating corn starch make your baby big?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Corn starch is a carbohydrate. Eating too many carbohydrate can make a person gain weight. I'm not sure what you mean by "make your baby big". Are you talking about weight, height or something else. Corn starch is present in a lot of edible items  we eat every day. The amount eaten has to be considered. I would advise you to talk to your pediatrician &amp; a dietician.

Question 4

what happens if a person eats / craves  a lot of corn starch?

Accepted Answer

Carb excess...: Eating corn starch is similar to eating sugar, because corn starch is a simple carbohydrate that gets broken down into sugar as digestion occurs. So, one would get excessive carbs, which is not good for the body. Craving corn starch is harmful only in that it causes anxiety (due to craving something all the time), but is not so bad because the person is only craving, not eating.
