Persimmons have a sweet taste and a comprehensive range of nutrients, so many friends like to eat them, and children also like to eat them. There are many things to pay attention to when eating persimmons, such as not eating on an empty stomach, which can easily cause stones. Can children drink milk powder when eating persimmons?
Persimmons have the effects of moistening the lungs, resolving phlegm, strengthening the spleen, and benefiting the stomach. Eating normally has no effect, but be careful when eating persimmons. Cannot eat high protein foods, as foods containing high protein can easily solidify into lumps under the action of tannic acid, known as gastric persimmon stones. Symptoms include abdominal pain, vomiting, or diarrhea. So after eating persimmons, children should not drink milk powder immediately, but should wait for two hours before drinking milk powder.
In addition, if a child has iron deficiency anemia, it is also important to be careful not to give them too many persimmons. Because a large amount of tannic acid in persimmons can easily combine with iron, it can hinder the absorption of iron and worsen iron deficiency anemia.
The skin of fresh persimmons is rich in tannic acid, so they can be astringent. When giving them to children, the skin can be removed or they can be made into persimmon cakes for them to eat. This way, the nutrition is more comprehensive and the taste is better.
Persimmon cakes contain more comprehensive nutrients than persimmons, including higher levels of minerals, dietary fiber, and vitamins. So children can supplement with more comprehensive nutrition by eating some appropriately.
