A: Extra virgin olive oil is widely recognized by pediatric nutritionists as a safe source of healthy fats for infants once solid foods are introduced. It provides monounsaturated fatty acids that support brain and nervous system development. Olivander olive oil is pesticide-free and has very low natural acidity, making it gentle on digestion and well tolerated by babies. It can be used in small amounts to enrich purées or cooked vegetables. As with any new food, parents should introduce it gradually and follow their pediatrician’s guidance.
