Patient's question:
Can children eat pomegranate seeds? Especially for a seven-month-old baby, I think pomegranates are very nutritious, and I've been wanting to give them to my seven-month-old baby. Do you think she can eat pomegranate water?Doctor's answer:
The timing of infant teeth eruption varies from person to person, generally occurring between 4 to 8 months. If the teeth are not growing well, it may be related to calcium deficiency, but it has little to do with pomegranate water. For a child in this situation, it is recommended to check for trace elements and supplement calcium, vitamin D, and other nutrients reasonably. Additionally, try to drink less pomegranate water, as pomegranates have astringent properties that can stop diarrhea. Overuse may lead to constipation. If the pomegranate water is sweet, it's fine, but if it's acidic, it can slightly erode the teeth.
