Patient's question:
Hello, my child is a boy, 12 years old. He has been coughing recently, so I would like to ask if children with cough can eat malt sugar.Doctor's answer:
Hello, if your child has a cough, it's best not to eat malt sugar. Sugar is a component that promotes mucus production, and malt sugar itself is a type of sugar. When dissolved in water, it becomes glucose, which is not conducive to coughing patients. If consumed, it may worsen the cough. Children should maintain a regular routine, take good care to stay warm, follow a light diet, and drink plenty of warm water. I hope my answer helps you!
