Question

What are the symptoms of a baby with deficient Qi?

Answer

Deficient Qi is a common pediatric constitution, often seen in conditions such as nasal allergies, asthma, digestive disorders, short stature, bedwetting, frequent colds, obesity, and heart disease. The more symptoms of deficient Qi a baby has, the more severe the condition may be. Parents should cultivate normal eating habits, including eating at regular intervals and in appropriate portions, avoiding snacks, and not consuming overly sweet, high-fat, or high-sugar foods and drinks before meals to prevent early satiety and reduce appetite. Maintaining a regular sleep schedule and engaging in moderate outdoor exercise can help prevent the exacerbation of deficient Qi.
