Doctor's answer:
Poor digestion requires nurturing the intestinal function, as children's intestinal function is relatively weak. Because the balance in the intestines is disrupted, nausea and vomiting can actually be a protective mechanism, expelling toxins from the body. Taking anti-diarrheal medication too early is often unreliable and may lead to intestinal obstruction. Therefore, it is essential to maintain the balance of beneficial bacteria in the intestines. Consuming trisaccharide fructooligosaccharides can enhance intestinal motility and coordination of intestinal contractions, promote the tightening of the intestinal walls, regulate the intestinal microecology, correct intestinal dysfunction, and provide beneficial care for the intestines.
