Q: Can babies with gastroenteritis eat fruit?

Answer

Sudden loss of appetite, nausea, and vomiting are common symptoms of acute gastroenteritis. It’s important to be aware of possible causes. Most often, these are due to improper bowel movements or abdominal cold. When an attack recurs, it is advisable to avoid greasy, hard-to-digest, or spicy foods. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, maintain a light diet, and choose easily digestible foods like congee. Also, be sure to keep warm to prevent abdominal cold.
