Question

What to Feed a Two-Year-Old with Heat?

Answer

For children with excessive ‘heat,’ traditional Chinese medicine should be administered for symptomatic treatment. For instance, if there is lung heat and congestion, Tongxuan Lili Pill or Mahuang Shigao Decoction can be taken; for yin deficiency with lung heat, Yangyin Qingfei Oral Liquid or Jingu Drink are recommended. Additionally, fruits like apples, oranges, and pears can be consumed. If the primary issue is anorexia, the treatment should focus on strengthening the spleen and stomach, promoting digestion, and can include the use of Xiangsha Liujun Decoction for treatment.
