What should a 10-year-old child with lupus avoid in their diet?

Patient's question:

Time unknown, whole body swollen

Doctor's answer:

Lupus is a relatively common autoimmune disease that affects multiple systems and organs, resulting in the production of various autoantibodies due to cellular and humoral immune dysfunction. The pathogenesis is primarily due to the formation of immune complexes. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treats lupus by following the treatment principle of "first purging, then replenishing." The basic principle is to first eliminate the heat-toxin factors and then regulate the disrupted internal environment of the body to achieve a state of balance. Once the yin-yang balance is restored in the patient's body, lupus naturally heals.
