Changing seasons and weather conditions can easily make delicate babies sick. Due to the large temperature difference between morning and evening, the occurrence of colds in babies is even more severe. After a baby catches a cold, parents usually give medication for treatment. In fact, many fruits in daily life can also treat colds. So, can babies eat steamed oranges when they have a cold?
Salt steamed oranges are very good for babies to eat during a cold. Salt steamed oranges are sweet and flat, and there are no contraindications for consuming them. Salt steamed oranges have no side effects and can be eaten by people of all ages. People with colds and coughs can eat them once a day in the morning and evening, and their condition will improve if they eat them continuously for 3-4 days.
Whenever a baby has a cold, they should be encouraged to drink plenty of water instead of waiting until they are thirsty. Drinking plenty of water during a cold can help alleviate the symptoms and promote blood circulation. This can also accelerate the elimination of metabolic waste from the body, allowing cold toxins to be eliminated from the body and alleviate the adverse effects on the respiratory tract.
During the stage of a baby's cold, it is best to have a light diet and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. You can also eat lean meat and eggs appropriately. Avoid oily and fishy foods, and avoid sour foods as they are not helpful for the condition of the cold.
After a baby catches a cold, keep the room ventilated to ensure that the indoor air reaches a certain humidity, which can prevent dryness of the respiratory mucosa and facilitate the recovery of the cold condition. But after all, babies have weaker immunity. If you experience persistent coughing, don't delay and seek medical treatment immediately.
