Breakfast time: After a night's rest in the stomach, the digestive function of the baby who eats weakly acidic fruits is still activated. Eating fruit in the morning can help your baby digest and absorb, which is conducive to laxative. The sour and sweet taste of fruit can make the baby feel refreshed all day. So fruits that are not too sour or too astringent are very suitable for breakfast. Recommended fruits: apples, pears, grapes and grapefruit. ? Tips: Hawthorn should not be eaten in the morning. Whether it is fresh fruit or hawthorn products, it has the functions of removing blood stasis, resolving phlegm and detoxifying, heatstroke prevention and cooling, and stimulating appetite. Especially for babies with weak spleen and stomach, eating sour hawthorn in the morning will increase the content of gastric acid and cause gastrointestinal diseases. So moms, it's best not to take hawthorn as baby's breakfast!
Before and after lunch: Choose fruits carefully. Before lunch: Have some bananas and red dates. Bananas are rich in potassium, which is good for heart and muscle function. At the same time, bananas can also help treat constipation and diarrhea in children and are suitable for eating before meals. Jujube contains a lot of vitamin C, so it has the reputation of "natural vitamin C pill", and it is best to eat it before meals. However, babies with stomachache, abdominal distension and indigestion should not be eaten. ? Tip: Don't eat cherry tomatoes and persimmons before meals. Some fruits are not allowed for hungry babies to eat before meals, such as cherry tomatoes and persimmons. Cherry tomatoes contain soluble astringents. If the baby eats on an empty stomach, it will combine with gastric acid, increase the pressure in the stomach and cause pain.
Persimmon has astringent effect. When they encounter stomach acid, they will form persimmon stones, which can neither be digested nor excreted. After eating a lot of food on an empty stomach, the baby will have symptoms such as nausea and vomiting. ?
In addition, it is best not to eat acidic fruits such as oranges and hawthorn before meals. In addition, kiwifruit, oranges, hawthorn and other fruits suitable for eating after meals contain a lot of organic acids, which can increase the activity of digestive enzymes, promote fat decomposition and help babies digest. After dinner: eat some longan to help sleep. An hour after the meal, the mother can prepare some longan for the baby. Especially for babies who can't sleep well at night, eating a few longan can soothe the nerves and help the baby sleep better.
But eating fruit at night is not conducive to digestion, and because there is too much sugar in fruit, it is easy to cause excess calories and lead to obesity. Especially eating fruits with high fiber content before going to bed will affect sleep because of the fullness of the stomach, which is not conducive to the health of babies with poor gastrointestinal function. Therefore, the mother should grasp the time when the baby eats fruit after dinner, and don't eat it immediately after dinner, and don't treat the fruit as a snack before going to bed. So smart mothers might as well try to cook the fruit, which can not only prevent the baby's spleen and stomach from catching cold, but also effectively warm the stomach!
