Patient's question:
Can children with cold and fever eat mangoes?Doctor's answer:
Children with fever often suffer from severe dehydration, but it's not advisable to blindly give them some fruits to eat. For example, mangoes are best avoided. Although mangoes are rich in beta-carotene, selenium, and vitamin C, they have a damp and toxic nature. If the child has a skin condition, it's important to remember to avoid eating them. Babies can choose to drink more water, and if they are taking cold medicine, they can eat some apples or similar fruits.
