Question

My child has been crying and not eating much lately. Can a baby with a cold drink green bean porridge?

Answer

Green beans have a cooling and detoxifying effect and can be somewhat helpful for the common cold. This doesn’t have a very significant medicinal effect, and as long as it’s not taken directly as a decoction with medicine, the impact is generally minimal, and it can be consumed normally. It’s okay to have some, but pay attention to the quantity restrictions; no more than twice a day, with each serving not exceeding 50 grams. Since dragon fruit is a high-fiber, low-calorie fruit, babies with constipation can eat a bit more.
