Some babies often have a runny nose, and parents often believe that this may be related to internal heat, so they will be very careful in their daily diet to avoid eating foods that are prone to internal heat, so as not to worsen their runny nose. So, can babies with runny nose eat fish?
Babies with runny nose are mostly related to colds or internal heat. If you have this symptom, you should avoid eating fish, including river fish, sea fish, or some scaleless fish. According to the TCM theory, the fish makes fire and the meat makes phlegm, while the baby's runny nose has internal heat. If you eat fish, it is easy to aggravate this symptom. Therefore, you should avoid giving your baby shrimp, fish, crabs and other aquatic products at this stage.
In addition, if the baby has a runny nose, parents should also frequently measure the baby's temperature to check for fever symptoms. If there is a fever, timely measures should be taken to reduce it. Diet should be light and nutritious, and try to eat less high calorie and high protein foods to avoid indigestion.
If there are no fever symptoms when measuring body temperature, it may be in the early stages of a cold. At this time, it is necessary to let the baby drink more hot water and eat fruits rich in vitamin C in moderation, such as oranges, kiwis, etc. It can be squeezed into fruit juice for consumption, which can not only remove internal heat, but also contain vitamin C, improve the body's immunity, and promote the rapid resolution of cold and runny nose symptoms.
