Can there be sequelae after drinking banana poisoning?

Patient's question:

The day before yesterday, my child and I went to a friend's house for a meal. My child accidentally mistook the friend's for drinking water and consumed it. The child kept continuously vomiting. When we went to the hospital, the doctor said the child had been poisoned and immediately gave him a stomach wash. Although it looks like nothing is wrong now, I'm still worried. Hello, can there be long-term effects from banana water poisoning?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, since gastric lavage was performed promptly and additional treatment was administered, it is highly unlikely that any sequelae would be left behind. It is recommended that you give your child plenty of plain water to drink in the near future, as well as fruits rich in vitamin C, such as apples, sweet oranges, kiwis, etc., which can accelerate cellular metabolism. It is also suggested that you include more fresh fruits and vegetables in your child's diet, supplement with meat, eggs, and dairy products to strengthen their immune system. When taking care of the child, it is crucial that they never leave the sight of the parents to prevent any accidents that could result in life-threatening injuries.
