Careful parents give their children a "blood-replenishing vegetable"

Nowadays, iron deficiency anemia in children has become another new disease of affluence among children besides obesity and myopia. Doctors point out that unreasonable diet structure, picky eating and partial eating are important causes of children suffering from iron deficiency anemia.

Doctors say that apart from a few children suffering from congenital physical conditions, the main cause of iron deficiency anemia is related to their daily diet and lifestyle habits. Many children like to drink yogurt and eat chocolate after waking up. Some children drink frozen milk and eat fruits on an empty stomach early in the morning. Some parents do not have the habit of eating breakfast themselves, so their children often skip breakfast. Children who go to bed late and get up early with their parents do not have time to have a good breakfast every day, and they will suffer from iron deficiency anemia in the long run.

If adolescents with iron deficiency anemia do not supplement iron in time, they may experience symptoms such as decreased physical strength, decreased memory, and decreased cellular immunity levels, which can easily induce upper respiratory tract infections such as colds and tracheitis. The main focus is on blood supplementation. The simplest way is to let children eat more iron-rich foods to increase hemoglobin. These foods mainly include lean meat, pork liver, egg yolks, kelp, chicken liver, seaweed, shiitake mushrooms and soy products.

Animal liver: Liver is rich in various nutrients and is the first choice food for preventing iron deficiency anemia. Every 100 grams of pork liver contains 25 mg of iron, and is easily absorbed by the human body. For example, liver paste is very convenient for children to eat.

Egg yolk: Every 100 grams of egg yolk contains 7 mg of iron. Although the iron absorption rate is only 3%, eggs are easy to obtain, easy to eat and store, and are rich in other nutrients, so it is still one of the sources of iron supplementation for children.

Soybeans and their products: Every 100 grams of soybeans and soybean powder contains 11 mg of iron, and the human body absorption rate is 7%.

Sesame paste: Sesame paste is rich in various nutrients and is an excellent nutritional food for children. Every 100 grams of sesame paste contains 58 mg of iron, and is also rich in calcium, phosphorus, protein and fat.

Doctors warn that the actual absorption amount of iron in some foods is low due to interference from plant acid. The foods that best meet the requirements include pork liver, chicken and duck blood soup, lean meat, fish and shrimp, etc. In addition, eating a tomato or drinking a glass of orange juice before meals can multiply the absorption of iron, while drinking tea before or after meals will greatly inhibit the body's absorption of iron.

The doctor gave a dietary therapy for anemia: spinach and wolfberry porridge. Parents can refer to it and learn how to make it.

Ingredients: 100 grams of spinach, 15 grams of wolfberry, 100 grams of corn.

Preparation: Remove impurities from the spinach, wash it with roots, blanch it in boiling water, take it out, arrange it and cut it into small pieces (within 0.5 cm), put it in a bowl and set aside. Wash corn and wolfberry, put them into a casserole, add appropriate amount of water, boil them over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1 hour. When the corn is soft, add small pieces of spinach, mix well, add salt and MSG, bring to a boil again, pour in sesame oil, stir well and it is done.

Usage: Take in the morning and evening every day.

Efficacy: Nourishes the liver and kidneys, replenishes blood and strengthens the spleen. It is especially suitable for growing children and adolescents with anemia.

The above dietary therapy methods must be taken seriously. This is a critical step in treating children's anemia. When treating such diseases, you must also make some reasonable dietary adjustments for your child. You must eat blood-enriching foods, but not too much. Although some foods can replenish blood, eating too much is also very bad for the body. When replenishing blood, you can eat some pig blood, red dates, wolfberries and other foods.
