Complementary Food for Breast Milk (MP-ASI) is a food or drink containing nutrients given to infants or toddlers aged 6-12 months that are needed to meet and fulfill other than breast milk. Mothers' knowledge regarding the provision of complementary foods is still varied so that various efforts are needed to provide information with the aim of increasing mothers' knowledge in the experience of providing complementary foods, including through counseling.
