Question
After the child has recovered from acute enteritis, how should they strengthen their nutrition? Can medicinal cuisine be used to supplement?
Answer
To aid in the child’s recovery, here are some dietary suggestions: Egg Yolk Diet: Remove the shell and white from a boiled egg and gently fry the yolk in a small amount of oil. Provide one yolk oil to infants under one year old, taken in two to three servings throughout the day, to treat diarrhea and promote digestion. Apple Diet: Apples contain tannins that help stop diarrhea. You can steam the apples and eat the flesh or puree them. Take 30-60 grams daily, in three servings. Apple soup is also suitable as a supplementary beverage. Congee Diet: Boil 3-5 chestnuts into a paste after peeling and crushing them, then add sugar for seasoning before eating. Take this twice or thrice a day to help warm and stop diarrhea. Additionally, drinks like Jujube and Carrot Soup can strengthen the spleen and stop diarrhea. During the recovery period, you can consume foods such as white rice porridge, noodles, lotus root powder, eggs, steamed fish, and salty egg custard.
