The composites blends were formulated based on protein basis of the food commodities used yellow corn, soya bean, guinea corn, millet, groundnut cake, dates, Cray fish, ginger and garlic.
Standard procedures recommended by Analytical of Official Analytical Chemists were used to determine the proximate composition, vitamins, minerals, and Amino acids contents Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer VG Bulk 211 model And Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometer were used to determine the mineral elements and nutritional composition of the locally produced weaning food.
The results showed that moisture, ash, crude fibre, protein, carbohydrate and energy contents of the formulated weaning food were either comparable or higher than the values of the commercial baby food. The vitamins, minerals and amino acids were present in the formulated weaning food. It can be concluded that proper selection and combination of local food stuffs can produce a low-cost and highly nutritive weaning food.
