If a child has weak spleen and stomach function, their absorption ability will be poor, making their immune system more susceptible to decline, which can lead to illness. Therefore, to improve a child's immunity, it is important to focus on regulating their spleen and stomach function, especially for premature babies who tend to have weaker constitutions and should pay more attention to regulating their digestive and absorption functions.If a child exhibits symptoms of poor spleen and stomach function or a weak constitution, Longmu Zhuanggu Granules can be used for treatment. This medicine contains herbs such as chicken gizzard, Chinese yam, jujube, and white atractylodes, which help regulate the spleen and stomach and promote digestion.
