A member asked:

Is baby food good as nutritional supplement?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Baby food in adults: The amount of nutrients in baby food is suited for infants, and although not harmful, would not be the best choice for supplementing an adult diet. Multivitamins made from whole food, available at health food stores, would be more appropriate.
