Although eggs are a common food, they have high nutritional value. In order to ensure the nutritional needs of babies' physical development, 1-2 eggs need to be eaten every day. But sometimes in life, babies may inevitably suffer from colds and coughs, and during this period, their appetite is often poor. So, can babies eat eggs during coughing and catching a cold?
Cold cough is a typical symptom of upper respiratory tract infection. Most coughs caused by the common cold are self limiting, and after symptomatic treatment, they can usually heal well within about 7 days. During this period, dietary regulation is very important, and it is necessary to avoid eating foods that are prone to overheating, have overly strong flavors, and are stimulating.
However, eggs consumed in daily life do not belong to this type of food. During a baby's cough or cold, if there is no obvious indigestion, bloating, diarrhea, or high fever, eggs can be eaten without aggravating the cough or cold. Therefore, it can be arranged to be consumed reasonably every day.
But if the baby has a significant high fever and gastrointestinal discomfort, it is not advisable to eat eggs again and should be temporarily stopped. Because the protein nutrients contained in eggs are difficult to digest substances, and when babies have such symptoms, their gastrointestinal function may be poor, which may worsen the symptoms after consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to temporarily stop eating eggs. Additionally. For babies who are prone to allergies in daily life, it is not recommended to eat eggs again during colds, fevers, and coughs, as it can easily trigger allergies.
