Why is the child's skin yellow?

We know that children generally have fair, smooth and tender skin, which is really enviable. But some children’s skin is not so fair, but a little yellow. What is the reason? Why do children have yellow skin? Why does my child have yellow skin? If you want to know the answer, please read the following carefully!

There are two main reasons for the yellow skin of babies. One is genetic factors, and the other is acquired factors, including whether the nutrition is balanced, whether the sun protection is in place, and whether the daily skin care is done correctly.

If you want your baby to have white skin, experts suggest that in terms of nutrition, parents can feed their children foods rich in vitamins and hyaluronic acid (a component of the human dermis that can enhance skin elasticity and water-locking ability), such as meat, vegetables and fruits. These foods can moisturize the baby's skin and make the skin shiny.

Also, don't expose your baby to too much sun. Although sunbathing is beneficial to the baby's bone growth and enhancing resistance, if the baby is overexposed to the sun, the combined effects of photoaging and phototoxicity will cause the baby's skin to increase in pigmentation, becoming rough and dark. Mothers like to use a variety of skin care products to care for their baby's skin, but experts remind parents that blindly using whitening skin care products may backfire. In fact, the secret to baby skin care is just twelve words: keep it clean in the summer and moisturize it in the winter.

Through the introduction above, I believe you already know why children have yellow skin! The main reason for yellow skin is genetic or acquired factors. If the baby's parents are both fair-skinned, then it may be an acquired factor. You should also protect your child from the sun when taking care of him/her. Don't wait until the child turns yellow before you remember it!
