What should I do if my child has poor digestion?

Children need a variety of nutrients as they grow, and the absorption of these nutrients depends on the baby's stomach and intestines. If the baby's stomach is not in good condition, it will affect its digestion and absorption function. If it is not adjusted for a long time, it will affect the baby's healthy growth. Therefore, parents must take good care of their baby’s stomach. So what should we do if children have poor digestion?

1. Eat peanuts raw. Giving your baby a few raw peanuts on an empty stomach every morning when you wake up or before going to bed at night can have a good effect on nourishing the stomach. Be especially careful when your baby eats peanuts. Cut the peanuts into two pieces and don't make him cry or laugh while eating.

2 Drink more millet porridge. Millet sprouts and malt contain a large amount of enzymes and are a traditional Chinese medicine that can strengthen the stomach and help digestion. In addition, millet also has the effect of preventing nausea and vomiting. Cooking millet porridge for your baby and drinking millet oil every day is very good for the stomach.

3. Try to eat until you are 70% full and avoid overeating. Babies should eat in moderation and not be allowed to eat endlessly to prevent them from overeating and damaging their stomachs. Just eat until your baby is 70% full. If your baby is hungry, you can add some biscuits, milk powder, etc.

4. Do not eat raw or cold food or drink water. The food prepared for the baby should be hot but not too hot. This is especially true in winter when food and porridge cool down very quickly. The food should be fed to the baby while it is hot, otherwise it may damage the baby's delicate stomach if it gets cold. The water you give your baby should be as hot as possible.

5. Give your baby some easily digestible food. For example, it is better to eat leavened dough steamed bread, and avoid eating unleavened dough foods that are difficult to digest, such as fried cakes.

6. Avoid catching a cold in your abdomen when sleeping at night. Cover your baby with a blanket when he sleeps to prevent him from catching a cold and damaging his stomach.

After the above introduction, we know how to regulate children’s poor digestion. Therefore, if the baby’s stomach is not good, it is necessary to use diet to regulate it in time. Eat more easily digestible and stomach-nourishing foods, and avoid eating overly hot or cold foods to avoid damaging the stomach and intestines. In short, the healthy growth of the baby requires the full care of parents.
