Why do children have thick tongue coating?

Children's health is the most important issue for every mother. Children's health is an important factor that concerns all family members. Everyone hopes that their children can grow up healthy and happy, because only in this way can their baby grow up smoothly. However, children are always facing the threat of some diseases. Various diseases are very harmful to children. Why do some children have thick tongue coating? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

If a child has a thick tongue coating, it is because of the stomach qi. The stomach represents the spleen, so generally speaking, the spleen should be blamed. Thick coating indicates that the stomach qi is strong, or there is food accumulation in the body, food cannot be digested, or the spleen produces water and dampness. A red tongue with yellow coating indicates excessive heat, while a white or light red tongue with white coating indicates qi deficiency and inability to transport and transform water and dampness. When children take medicine, “if they are a little slow, they will suffer stagnation; if they are a little heavy, they will be Drug treatment is generally not recommended, and these symptoms will gradually return to balance as the child grows older. My advice is not to feed your child randomly, or even to overeat. Children’s internal organs are delicate. Chinese medicine says “do not wear warm clothes, and breastfeed in moderation.” Don’t wrap your child thickly for fear that he will be cold. “If you want your child to be safe, keep him three parts hungry and cold” is very instructive. Regarding food supplements, jujube, yam, coix seed, hawthorn, etc. are all very good. They can be added to daily rice porridge to enhance the absorption of the spleen and stomach, which has a good effect.

1. Eat foods that are high in crude fiber and contain a lot of vitamins, such as cherries, guava, red peppers, yellow peppers, persimmons, broccoli, strawberries, oranges, kale, cauliflower, and kiwis.

2. Eat less foods with odors, such as stinky tofu, leeks, garlic, onions, and smoked meat products.

3. You can drink yogurt.

From the above explanation, the phenomenon of thick tongue coating in children is a disease phenomenon, which poses a certain threat to children's physical health. Therefore, people should strengthen physical examinations in life, especially children's bodies, and must improve children's physical resistance. As long as disease symptoms occur, seek medical attention in time.
