Question
A child has been experiencing diarrhea for four days, initially caused by medication. How should it be handled?
Answer
Here are several food suggestions that not only provide the necessary nutrition for infants but also have a certain anti-diarrheal effect. 1. Rice Porridge: Grind rice flour or cream into powder, fry until golden brown, add an adequate amount of water and sugar, and cook into a thin paste. Rice porridge is easy to absorb and its carbonized structure helps with diarrhea, making it the first choice for infants with diarrhea. 2. Carrot Soup: Carrots are alkaline foods containing pectin, which can help shape stool, adhere to, and expel pathogens and toxins from the intestines. It is a good anti-diarrheal and antibacterial food.
