What it's good for

Per typical serving at 7–8 months (~38 g).

Brain
- Vitamin B12 helps form red blood cells and maintain the nervous system. 58% of daily need. MedlinePlus: Vitamin B12 ↗
Growth
- Protein helps the body repair cells and make new ones, and is important for growth. 35% of daily need. MedlinePlus: Protein in diet ↗

A nutrient counts when one serving gives at least 20% of the daily need (NASEM) — the bar FDA sets for “excellent source” labels. No single food does the job alone; a varied diet does.
