When a baby is just born, due to the weak digestive ability of the stomach and intestines, they can only eat milk every day. However, within a few months, the baby will be able to eat some complementary food. Parents can gradually add Rice noodles, egg yolk, fruit and other ingredients to the baby. So, can babies eat loquat?
Babies can eat loquat, but only for babies over one year old. At the beginning, feed a small amount and observe if the child has any allergic symptoms. Loquat is a food that can easily cause allergies. If a baby has adverse reactions, feeding must be stopped.
If the baby is not allergic after eating loquat, they can continue to eat some. Loquat contains many nutrients, which have the effects of increasing appetite, quenching thirst and relieving heat, and can also relieve cough. Parents can make some loquat water for their children to drink when they cough, which has a good cough relieving effect. You can also remove the loquat kernels and scrape them into a paste to feed to children. In addition, loquat fruit can resist influenza virus, and giving children some loquat to eat can prevent influenza.
Although feeding loquat to children is beneficial for their health, it should not be overfed to babies. Due to the cool nature of loquat, consuming too much can promote dampness and phlegm production, so do not give your baby too much at once. Children should not be allowed to eat loquat on an empty stomach, otherwise it will burden the digestive system.
