All these people with little kids, I don't know what else you want to hear. Oya see proof: "Only 18 out of 18,000, in Gombe, pass WAEC" (source Vanguard) . The other 17,982 people started taking Golden Mourn when they were 6 months . For those of you giving your little babies amala...I don't have anything to say to you . 2 Likes 2 Shares |

My 2 year old loves Golden Morn, no adverse reactions or any health scares. Same for my neighbour's son who was essentially weaned on the product. I see nothing wrong with Golden Morn! 1 Like |

Nobody is saying Gmorn is bad its just not adviceable to feed it to babies!! Just like you'll find on most pasturized milk the warning that says LIKE COWS MILK THIS PRODUCT HAS NOT BEEN MORDIFIED FOR INFANT FEEDING!!! And still people give them to their babies, also the warning on tobacco yet there many 80yr old smokers around! Feed your babies gmorn if you like but know this if something goes wrong with your baby as a result of gmorn feeding Nestle already got their defence! THEY PLACED A WARNING!!!!!! GOLDEN MORN IS NOT AN INFANT CEREAL (incase you don't know the defination of infant google is dia) NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN BELOW 3 years of age. There is a good reason why the health ministry made sure that warning is placed on the pack. 3 Likes |

Julesbloom: Golden morn old pack doesnt hv dz age restriction. but its nw on their new pack which amazed me cos hav bn given it to my baby gal since she was 1yr but nw i hv stoped it cos lately she started complaining of stomach cramp wen am giving her d golden morn.I raised all my 4 kids with golden morn which I usually introduce at 9months or so. However my last 2 didn't tolerate it. Rather than constipation it caused them to pass frequent though non watery stool . Literally used to poo poo about 30 minutes after a bowl of gmorn. However in the past that warning wasn't there. I wonder why? 1 Like 1 Share |

Paentera: The OP has made this seriously an alarming post but failed to tell us exactly why the cereal is alarming. Ok, it is not to be fed to kids under age 3 however you did not complete your assignment before screaming blue murder. You did well by informing us, but it would have been an excellent post if you had also researched and gave us the feedback of your research as to why this is so. The kid will still take the cereal at 3 years not so? Let us know why its dangerous to feed it to them between age 0 & 2.99. Why you dey pick query with OP? She simply told you what the manufacturer of the product said and you want her to do research to tell you why the manufacturer said it did not advise feeding to kids less than 3 yrs old?..u for koko tellam make she come help u breast feed ur pickin while u r at it. Am even surprise at some people here claiming that, they have been using it with no side-effect? A lot of things we feed our kids today do not manifest immediately, and they show up later in life in one form or another. If a manufacturer of a product will take the pain, discomfort, possible lost of patronage, etc to inscribe on their product that..."Golden Morn is not infant Cereal and it is not suitable for children below 3 yrs of age"...any wise mother does not need to see a Doctor before discontinuing its use except to determine what effect/damage it might have cause or will cause in the future. The manufacturers are not fools to put those labels, they are just trying to buy an insurance policy in case you come back and sue them tomorrow, they have given you enough warning.... 5 Likes |

Interesting,my baby has been eating Golden Morn since she was 6 months and she is 3yrs now,she love it and just can't do without it but we are yet to notice any discomfort. I will check for the info before I buy another pack,thanks for the info. |

Coldfeet: Exactly my thoughts feeding a one year old akpu and ewedu or any swallow isn't really a bad idea just make sure its not too thick! akpu especially,and the soup not peppery! My mother grew up on akpu and ofe ogbankpo! Its copy copy of the west that has made our own food taboo to us. I totally agree, and I grew up in the western world. Its even more cheaper to give your kid food from your own meals as well.. 2 Likes |

onyx79: My 2 year old loves Golden Morn, no adverse reactions or any health scares. Same for my neighbour's son who was essentially weaned on the product. I see nothing wrong with Golden Morn! Why not take the advice of the manufacturer of the product? The fact that, you did not see any 'health scares' on ur 2 yr old kid today, does not negate the fact that, the company that prepared this product clearly stated that it is not good for kids below 3yrs old. Effect of food we eat today or chemicals we introduce to our body sometimes take years to manifest and some do not usually manifest like out blown 'health scares' it could be learning disability or struggle, it could be deficiency in one bodily hormone chemical or something. Many people still smoke today despite the warnings, because they do not see the 'health scares' but people in the know who have done the scientific research tells us that cigarette is not good for your health.

tpia@: Pepper soup, benachin (rice and the meat you prefer and vegetables all cooked together ), domodoa/maffe ( peanutpaste ), soupa-kanja ( Okra ), and placas, wich is spinach. And milk/yoghurt with oatmeal, and also bread. All the food with rice is normally, in Gambia, cooked with much pepper. But, I havent grown up with much pepper, so she eats everything I eat. She even loves the strong peppersoup her daddy makes, that I can not eat myself. |

Seun: At least, they are better than processed food. And besides, if you want your kids to be smart, there are certain food you can add to their diet like walnut, vegetables, fruits and seeds like sesame, flax seed and to teach him or her the principle of logic and critical thinking etc..... |

kandiikane: Ahhh, I remember my first ever golden morn. I cried for a bit and wondered where in heaven it has been all my life. haha! people should try to feed their kids actual food as early as possible. I know (especially the poor) believe childrens food is anything sweet and mushy. No kids need vitamins and nutrients, feeding them one type of food isn't going to give them that They need variety. |

and yes, golden morn and cerelac are the most amazing things ever. . . . .and supermalt. . . .the wonderful things that come from africa |
Re: Golden Morn Unsuitable For Children Under 3 Years by Nobody: 9:31pm On Oct 13, 2012 |
Seriously I don't know where people got the idea that golden morn is for infant. To me its a cereal for children, teens and adults. Sometimes when am enjoying my cereal people won't let me be.Disturbing me, and asking- am I a baby Thank God u have all been alerted,now I can have my peace when having my cereal 1 Like |

Nestle has placed a "disclaimer" on this product. Why would any responsible parent knowingly feed their under 3 year old children with this cereal even after such a discovery/information. I got this info verbally. Went to a supermarket to confirm the authenticity of the info. Posted it on the internet (Nairaland Forum) to help those that have been using this product wrongly and yet some people (even parents ) still complain. Ignorance is no longer an excuse after you have been informed about this issue. Good night everyone. 4 Likes |

Re: Golden Morn Unsuitable For Children Under 3 Years by plendil: 12:06am On Oct 14, 2012 |
It certainly is a new addition. All those I've told about it have expressed surprise that such a warning existed. |
