What effect does intestinal problems have on children's health? Why?

Of course, children's intestinal problems are mainly manifested in the digestive tract, such as diarrhea and constipation caused by intestinal problems, which are common intestinal problems for children. These problems are firstly physical discomfort, and secondly, if they are not handled in time, they will bring other risks and harms to children's health. Intestinal health will also affect children's growth and health. Intestine is the largest digestive and absorptive organ of human body. Most of the nutrients that our body absorbs from the outside world are absorbed in the intestines. Therefore, if there is a problem with the intestine, there will be a problem with the absorption of nutrients, which will affect the growth and development of children and even cause some diseases.

It is found that intestinal flora is one of the important microorganisms to synthesize some B vitamins. If the intestinal flora is out of balance, it will lead to the deficiency of some B vitamins, and the absorption of vitamin E will also be affected. If the body lacks B vitamins, it may affect the production of cells in the body, leading to iron deficiency anemia. Lack of vitamin E will affect children's growth and development. When children suffer from enteritis, alkaline substances, water and electrolytes in children will be lost through feces, leading to acid-base imbalance and electrolyte disorder in children, resulting in hypokalemia and hyponatremia.

Severe hypokalemia can lead to arrhythmia. If the child loses too much water, it will lead to dehydration and even hypovolemic shock, which will endanger the child's life. If it is enteritis caused by bacterial infection, toxic encephalopathy will occur if the infection is too heavy, and septic shock and sepsis will occur in severe cases. Moreover, enteritis lasts too long, which will affect children's absorption of nutrients and lead to malnutrition.
