What is the cause of malnutrition and spleen deficiency in children?

1. Improper consumption of milk and food will harm the spleen and stomach

Eating dairy products in moderation, overeating fatty, sweet, raw and cold foods will damage the spleen and stomach, causing dysfunction of the spleen and stomach, impairing the functions of receiving, transporting and transforming, and causing imbalance in the ascending and descending of food, which will lead to stagnation. If the stagnation lasts for a long time, the spleen and stomach will be further damaged and it will turn into malnutrition.

2. Weak spleen and stomach

If the spleen and stomach are weak and deficient, it is difficult for milk and food to be digested, and the milk and food will stagnate and accumulate in the middle part of the body, obstructing the flow of Qi. Over time, this will lead to nutritional imbalance, weight loss, Qi and fluid deficiency, and developmental disorders.

Improper consumption of milk and food and weak spleen and stomach are mutually causal. Stagnation can damage the spleen and stomach, and weak spleen and stomach can also cause stagnation. Clinically, they are often mixed with each other.
