Foods such as pureed and packaged fruits and vegetables, along with whole grains, dairy, and proteins, deliver vitamins and other nutrients that are essential for brain development, immune function and bone strength. Because foods get their nutrients from the environments where they are grown and raised, they can also absorb trace amounts of heavy metals present in those environments, such as arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury.
