Agave instead of honey?

The answer to this might be obvious, but is agave all right for wee ones since it isn't made from pollen? Has anyone used it personally?

  • Agave nectar is okay in infants! My son didn't have it til about 12 months, but it is fine in younger babies too since it doesn't contain botulism.

  • When DD had a swallow study, I noticed they put Agave in the barium that she had to drink. This was months ago, so I'm sure if a medical professional used it, it should be fine. I haven't used it since. It didn't seem to bother DD. She actually really liked it.

  • Thanks, girls - I figured but hadn't considered bringing agave into the house until the other day. I'm obsessed with honey and DS is at the hmmm lemme taste it, too, stage :)
