How to regulate excessive stomach fire in children
If a child has excessive stomach heat, their diet must be light because excessive stomach heat is mainly caused by internal heat. Dietary therapy can be used to reduce stomach heat. You can boil pears with white sugar, peel the fresh pears, remove the core, add an appropriate amount of rock sugar, and put them in a pot with water to steam until soft before eating.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the regulation of stomach fire can follow the principles of clearing heat and stagnation, achieve a balanced diet, eat more green vegetables and seasonal fruits, which can contain vitamins and inorganic salts, and pay attention to oral hygiene.
What issues should be noted for children with excessive stomach fire
1. Children's diet should be regular, and they must not overeat. The food they eat should also be light, and they should chew slowly during meals. This is beneficial for digestion and gastrointestinal motility.
2. Children should not be exposed to secondhand smoke, as the harmful components in tobacco can stimulate excessive secretion of stomach acid, which can irritate the gastric mucosa and damage the stomach.
3. It is important to keep children in a happy mood and not let them have too many emotions, as poor emotions can cause problems such as excessive stomach fire. Maintaining good sleep and mood for children is of great significance for their growth.
Parents should remember to give their children plenty of water, because for some children with stomach fire, drinking more water is definitely good for their health. Drinking water can not only solve the problem of stomach fire, but also solve many other problems.
