Is it okay for a one year old child to eat chocolate?
Mar 12, 2013

Dr. Dania Khalaf Pediatrics
it is okay to one year old to eat chocolate , but don't exaggerate and give it to him every day , you can make it twice a week , because you must learn your child the healthy way of eating since this early age ....(and just to know there is some cases of chocolate allergy so be careful if any allergic reaction appear ..)

Dr. Judy Matta Pediatrics
It is okay to give your one year old child chocolate but certainly not every day and not on a regular basis. Adding chocolate to your child’s diet can contribute to tooth decay and cavities and also spoil his appetite. We do encourage parents to provide their children with healthy snacks packed with vitamins and nutrients such as fruits, vegetables and grains which will promote better eating habits and thus prevent obesity.

The most important thing is that children never eat chocolate or sugar after 6pm. Two hours are a must for the saliva to clean the teeth avoiding decay.
