   • Sugar. Your baby does not need sugar. By avoiding sugary snacks and drinks (including fruit juice and other fruit drinks), you'll help prevent tooth decay.
   • Saturated fat. Do not give your child too many foods that are high in saturated fat, such as crisps, biscuits and cakes. Checking the nutrition labels can help you choose foods that are lower in saturated fat.
   • Honey. Occasionally, honey contains bacteria that can produce toxins in a baby's intestines, leading to infant botulism, which is a very serious illness.
