Children are a vulnerable group, and their bodies, brains and other immune systems are not well developed. They are at a very fragile stage, so it is easy for them to be invaded by bacteria and viruses. Children's spleen and stomach disease is a very common disease, but many parents do not pay much attention to it. The spleen is an important immune organ, and if the spleen is sick, it must be treated immediately. 1. Reasons 1. Improper diet. Children are in the growth and development stage, and their spleen and stomach functions are not yet fully developed. Therefore, if you are not restrained in your diet, eating one meal and full the next, not eating on time, or eating too many snacks, it can affect the spleen and stomach function, causing spleen and stomach dysfunction, spleen and stomach weakness and other symptoms, and over time you will become "pale and thin". 2. Eating too much cold food. Children are Yang-dominant by nature and are prone to internal heat, so they like to eat cold food. If you do not exercise restraint and eat too much cold food, it will easily damage the spleen and stomach, causing spleen and stomach deficiency and coldness, and decreased function, thus affecting the digestion and absorption of food and the intake of nutrients. 2. Conditioning Diet: Whole grains strengthen the spleen and stomach For children with weak spleen and stomach, the summer diet should be light, rich in protein, vitamins and trace elements, and easily digestible food. Avoid eating too greasy food. Cooking should be in the form of soup, porridge, stew, paste, etc. to facilitate digestion and absorption by the spleen and stomach. Parents should pay attention to eating in moderation to avoid overeating which may damage the spleen and stomach. Children should be fed more whole grains, such as millet, which has the effect of strengthening the spleen and stomach and is suitable for children with spleen and stomach deficiency and heat and nausea. The sticky "rice oil" on millet porridge is extremely nutritious and very helpful in restoring gastrointestinal digestive function. In addition, corn has the functions of strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness, stimulating appetite and improving intelligence. Eating more corn can improve children's gastrointestinal function and help intellectual development; Job's tears has the functions of strengthening the spleen and lungs, clearing away heat and eliminating dampness. It is high in protein and easy to digest. In addition, you should also eat more beans or bean products. For example, soybeans also have the effect of strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi. Tofu, soy milk, etc. are quite beneficial to children with weak spleen and stomach; red beans have the effect of strengthening the spleen and replenishing blood, which is especially suitable for children with spleen deficiency and anemia. Parents can feed whole grains to children with spleen deficiency in many ways, such as adding millet or beans to rice; adding corn flour or soybean flour to flour when making pasta; making corn flour into corn paste, corn tortillas, etc., to make it easier for children to accept. We should all care about the children around us, and parents should pay more attention to their own children. Children's healthy and happy childhood is the happiest thing for us adults. We should educate children not to be picky about food and to have regular diet. We should also have some related medicines at home. |
