Question

Dear Baby, she is currently 1 year old and just started saying that her throat hurts, accompanied by severe coughing, and some feverish symptoms. What are the dietary restrictions for children with tonsillitis?

Answer

Children’s tonsils are prone to inflammation, and once it occurs, it requires timely medical treatment. At the same time, for dietary purposes, it is recommended to focus on vegetables and fruits, as they are rich in nutrients and help boost the child’s immunity, promoting the repair of the tonsils. It is suggested to eat fruits such as pears, apples, tangerines, and kiwis, as well as porridge and soft noodles that are easy to digest and swallow. Parents should avoid giving children spicy and irritant foods and should not let them have a preference for certain foods to ensure they receive a balanced diet, thereby reducing the incidence of tonsillitis.
