Question
What should children avoid eating during tonsillitis?
Answer
To help your child’s tonsillitis heal quickly, diet plays a crucial role. It is recommended to consume fresh vegetables and fruits, which are rich in vitamins and can boost the immune system. You can choose fruits like pears, kiwis, and tangerines, which also have a cooling and detoxifying effect. The diet should be light and easy to digest, with porridge and noodles being good choices. At the same time, parents should pay attention not to let their child eat spicy and irritating foods, and avoid picky eating or selective eating to prevent nutritional imbalance that may affect immunity and increase the risk of recurrence.
