Will eating mango cause internal heat in children?

Mango is a fruit that tastes very sweet. Not only adults like to eat it, but children also like to eat it very much. When eating, you just need to peel off the skin and eat the flesh inside. Of course, if you are allergic, you should be cautious when eating mangoes. So from a health perspective, will feeding mangoes to children cause them to get angry?

Babies will not get irritated by eating mangoes. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that mango is sweet and sour, cool in nature and non-toxic, and has the functions of clearing away heat and promoting body fluid, quenching thirst and promoting urination, benefiting the stomach and stopping vomiting.

An article in "Food Materia Medica" says: "Mango can cure 'women's menstrual blockage and men's blood circulation disorder'." Mango is particularly suitable for symptoms such as insufficient stomach yin, thirst and dry throat, weak stomach qi, vomiting and seasickness. Mango is sweet and sour, which is good for the stomach. Therefore, in ancient times, people who traveled across the oceans would buy it for emergency use during the journey. Eating it would not cause seasickness or nausea, and it can be said to be a magical fruit.

However, babies should not eat too many mangoes, because mangoes may cause allergies in babies. At the same time, people with allergies should eat mangoes with caution. After eating, they should promptly wash off the mango juice and flesh remaining on the skin around the lips to avoid allergic reactions. Ordinary people should not eat mangoes in large quantities, otherwise their skin will turn yellow and it will cause damage to their kidneys. When eating mangoes, you should avoid eating spicy foods such as garlic at the same time to prevent yellowing of the skin.
