Patient's question:
What are some dietary tips for children with asthma? The child has been experiencing this condition for a long time, and I am very worried about it, fearing it could worsen. Please provide some advice from a doctor.Doctor's answer:
Hello, pediatric asthma is a relatively common chronic respiratory disease in children. Generally, it is recommended that the selection of children's food should follow the "Six Not Excess" principle. It is not advisable to eat too salty, too sweet (such as chocolate), too greasy (such as animal fat), too stimulating (such as cold, hot, pungent, spicy, alcohol, strong tea, etc.), or allergic (such as seafood, milk, fish, shrimp, etc.), depending on individual allergy conditions. It is also not advisable to eat too full. If possible, you can appropriately supplement foods rich in magnesium, such as kelp, sesame, walnuts, peanuts, soybeans, and leafy vegetables. It is advisable to eat jujubes, pears, oranges, apricots,, lotus seeds, radishes, etc., but it should also be combined with your specific conditions.
