Adults often experience difficulty in defecation and constipation due to various reasons such as irregular physical constitution, diet, and sleep schedule. Severe constipation is bound to affect physical health. And this kind of constipation can also occur in some children. Most parents hope to regulate their children's constipation through diet. So, what is the best food for children with constipation?
1. When children experience constipation, dietary adjustments can effectively improve the condition. During this period, it is best to eat green leafy vegetables that are rich in dietary fiber and vitamins. For example, spinach is the most common green leafy vegetable. This dish has the effects of clearing heat and reducing fire, relieving intestinal heat toxicity, and effectively improving constipation symptoms. In addition, spinach contains enzymes that can promote intestinal peristalsis, help digestion and smooth bowel movements.
2. You can also let the baby eat some Tremella fuciformis orange juice in moderation. This type of food has good therapeutic effects on internal heat, constipation, coughing, etc. It can also effectively improve constipation caused by intestinal dryness, moisten the intestines, help with bowel movements, and promote digestion. And the method is also relatively simple. After soaking and washing Tremella fuciformis, squeeze in orange juice, then steam it in water for 15 minutes, and it can be eaten. Children can eat it once a day, one small bowl at a time.
3. Additionally, fresh fruits are essential for regulating the digestive system and relieving constipation, especially bananas and apples. These two types of fruits are rich in dietary fiber and contain sugar alcohols and fructose that can effectively lubricate the intestines and increase intestinal peristalsis. Therefore, it is important to encourage children to eat fresh fruits in moderation.
