What Fruits Should Children Eat When They Have a Fever?

Question

A child has a fever and is unwilling to eat. The child wants to know which fruits can be consumed during the fever.

Answer

It is recommended that children with a fever drink plenty of water, increase rest, and consume foods rich in vitamin A to boost their immunity. At the same time, spicy foods should be avoided. When choosing fruits, consider those rich in vitamin A like carrots, spinach, and pumpkin, which can help reduce fever and improve immunity. For children who often have diarrhea and fevers, consider using treatments such as lycopene, isatis root, and fever-clearing granules.
