When offering your baby new foods, try to include fruits and vegetables in all the colors of the rainbow. Also offer good sources of protein (such as beans, chicken, fish, and yogurt), fat and iron (for example, iron-fortified oat cereal or meats). Dreamstime / TNS
Q: Is it OK if I make food for my baby at home?
A: Yes. You may find several benefits to feeding your baby homemade foods.
It can be less expensive than the baby food found in grocery stores, for example. It can let your child enjoy baby-friendly versions of foods he or she sees the rest of the family eating, and it may be easier than you think. All you need is a blender, food processor or even a good hand-held mixer.

Two phase 2 trials including hundreds of participants with type 2 diabetes from several countries assessed the safety and efficacy of a long-acting form of insulin called “insulin icodec.”
One trial found that using injectable insulin icodec once a week was as effective as using a standard injectable form of insulin once a day.
The other trial found that it seems to be safe and effective to transition from a standard daily insulin injectable to weekly icodec injections.
