Anyone here who's into Baby-led Weaning? Can it boost a baby's appetite?

According to BabyCenter, there hasn't been a research made yet that verifies that BLW increases a child's appetite. But it surely helps a baby to get interested in a variety of food and other benefits like it gives babies the chance to explore foods for themselves and it encourages babies to choose healthier foods. http://www.babycentre.co.uk/a1007100/baby-led-weaning#ixzz4F1LVRRGs

We mixed baby-led weaning with traditional methods and BLW really did seem to help with getting my child interested in food! She's 1 now and she looooves to eat because she's curious about tastes. She even eats roasted bell peppers!
