There are many types of fruits, and each fruit contains different nutrients and vitamins. Therefore, both adults and children should eat fruits to supplement the nutrients and vitamins needed by the body. However, it is important to pay attention to the diet when babies have a cold. So, can babies eat cold fruits if they feel sick?
After heating, the taste and flavor of many fruits will be greatly reduced, and they may become unappetizing. Babies may refuse to eat them, which can also make them dislike fruits. However, some babies prefer the taste of hot fruits. It is still better for babies to eat some hot fruits when they have a cold, cough, or indigestion.
Fruits contain a large amount of vitamins, which can easily destroy some water-soluble and heat sensitive vitamins in high temperature environments. Heating can cause nutrient loss in fruits, so fruits rich in vitamin C, such as citrus, strawberry, kiwi, etc., are best not to be heated for consumption. If mothers do not want their babies to eat them directly, they can lightly scald them in hot water. In fact, whether fruits should be heated or not cannot be generalized, and should be treated according to different situations. Every baby's constitution is different. Some babies have well-developed digestive systems and can eat cool fruits without any problems, while others have weaker digestive systems and need to heat up the fruits before eating.
