What should children eat if they have diarrhea in autumn?

Autumn is the most uncomfortable time for the intestines. If the climate becomes very dry in autumn, a reasonable diet is necessary to correct many bad habits. It is also very common for children to have diarrhea in autumn. Autumn is the time when diseases are most likely to occur. It is also easy to have diarrhea in autumn. Many people suffer from this type of autumn diarrhea due to rotavirus. So what should children eat when they have diarrhea in autumn?

1. Breastfed babies should continue to be breastfed.

2. Babies under 6 months old who are not breastfed should continue to be fed formula.

3. Babies over 6 months old should continue to eat the daily foods they are accustomed to, such as porridge, noodles, soft rice, eggs, minced fish, minced meat, fresh fruit juice, etc. Parents should encourage their babies to eat. If the baby eats little, they can increase the feeding frequency. At the same time, you should avoid feeding your baby vegetables, fruits containing crude fiber and high-sugar foods.

4. Viral enteritis often causes secondary disaccharidase (mainly lactase) deficiency. For suspected cases, the baby can be temporarily given low (or no) lactose formula milk for 1-2 weeks. After the diarrhea improves, the original feeding method can be restored.

5. Sugar-induced diarrhea: Lactose intolerance is the most common cause. To treat such babies, a disaccharide-free diet should be adopted, and lactose-free (or low) formula milk or soy protein formula milk can be used.

6. Allergic diarrhea: Milk allergy is the most common. Babies who are allergic to milk should avoid eating allergic foods, or use oral desensitization feeding methods without restricting foods that have already been tolerated. Infants can usually tolerate extensively hydrolyzed casein formula. If they still cannot tolerate it, they can use amino acid-based formula or a complete elemental diet.

7. Elemental diet: suitable for people with chronic diarrhea, intestinal mucosal damage, and malabsorption syndrome.

Children can eat this kind of meal in autumn to regulate and improve their conditions and make their intestines comfortable. In this way, the symptoms of diarrhea can be reduced. Children with diarrhea in autumn should pay attention to check whether it is caused by viral infection. If it is a viral infection, it should be treated from the antiviral aspect.
