Doctor's answer:
Hello: Below are some examples of therapeutic dietary recipes for children:Egg Yolk Soup: Boil an egg, remove the shell and protein, and use the yolk to extract oil by simmering it in a pot over low heat. For infants under 1 year old, give one teaspoon of yolk oil daily, divided into 2-3 servings. A 3-day course is recommended for treating diarrhea, with benefits including strengthening the spleen, nourishing the stomach, and stopping diarrhea. Egg yolk pancakes steamed with a little flour and ginger also have the same effect.
Apple Soup: Apples contain tannins, which have a laxative effect. Wash one apple, steam it, and eat the flesh or mash it into a puree for consumption. Each serving should be 30-60 grams, taken 3 times daily. Apple soup is also a supportive beverage for treating diarrhea. Chop the apple, add 250 milliliters of water and a small amount of salt, and optionally add 5% sugar. Boil the mixture and drink it like tea, suitable for infants under 1 year old.
Chestnut Paste Soup: Use 3-5 chestnuts, remove the shells, mash them, and cook with water to form a paste. Add sugar for flavoring and eat 2-3 times daily. It has a warming effect and helps stop diarrhea.
Other options include orange-date tea and carrot soup, which also have a strengthening effect on the spleen and stop diarrhea. During the recovery period, dietary options include white rice porridge, noodle sheets, lotus root powder, eggs, steamed fish, and savory egg custard.
