Faced with diarrhea in a child, parents immediately have questions regarding the nutrition of the baby, because they don’t want to aggravate his condition with the wrong foods. Let's figure out what you can eat with diarrhea and what food should be avoided.

Why is it important to follow a diet?

An important task of parents is to give the child food that will improve his condition, and will not cause more diarrhea. The diet for diarrhea is aimed at restoring the functioning of the intestines and its microflora, reducing fermentation processes and improving the condition of the mucous membrane.

Drinking a large amount of liquid will not burden the digestive tract and further irritate it. That is why solid food should be limited for a while. All food should be boiled (can be steamed) and pureed. Since the body of the child loses salts, care must be taken to restore them.

What should a child eat?

The most useful foods for diarrhea are:

• Drinks - salt solutions, rosehip decoction, herbal teas, apple juice, blueberry decoction, black tea, still warm mineral water, raisin decoction.
• Boiled white rice.
• Liquid porridge made from buckwheat, oatmeal, semolina, rice. You need to cook porridge in water.
• Apples - baked, boiled.
• Carrots - in the form of mashed potatoes, grated.
• Soup with meatballs. It should be non-greasy and slimy.
• Purees and decoctions of vegetables.
• Kissel from quince, pears, blueberries.
• White bread croutons.
• Steam omelets, cottage cheese, boiled eggs.
• Steam cutlets from low-fat meat and fish.

As soon as the child has diarrhea, give him only tea. It can be fennel tea or chamomile tea. Since a lot of fluid is lost during diarrhea, the baby should also be given a lot of tea to drink. To make up for the lost salts, add sugar and a little salt to your tea, even if the taste of the drink worsens.

On the second day, you can transfer the child to a grain or apple diet. If you decide to give your child porridge, boil it without milk, add a minimum of salt and do not add oil. You can cook oatmeal for your baby (take 300 ml of water for 25 grams of cereal, wipe the cooked porridge and add a little salt) or rice (boil 30 g of cereal until soft and grind, add a little salt).

Apples can be an alternative to cereals. Peel the fruits and grate. Give your child 200-500 g of apples throughout the day, divided into portions. You can give a chopped banana to a grated apple. You can only drink herbal tea and mineral water during such diets.

By the third day, the child's condition should improve. Now the baby can be given not only cereals, but also mashed potatoes, crackers, bread, cottage cheese, eggs, lean meat. Any additions to the diet should be gradual. Foods that are difficult to digest (fatty meat, fried foods, chocolate, and others) should not be given to a child during the recovery period.

Infants with artificial feeding

For diarrhea in a formula-fed baby and older children who are already familiar with complementary foods, it is worth feeding like this:

• On the first day, give fennel tea, in which for every 100 ml a teaspoon of glucose and a small pinch of salt are added.
• Such tea should be given to the baby twice, and the third dose is to make diluted rice powder (take 4 grams of powder per 100 ml of water), to which a teaspoon of glucose is added. Analogue - rice water for diarrhea, made at home.
• On the second day, you can only give rice powder, to which you can add carrots.
• If on the third day the child's condition improves and there is no temperature, you can return to normal feeding.

Babies can make carrot soup. First, fresh carrots (500 g) are boiled in water (1 l) for two hours, adding a little salt. Water is added to boiled carrots, rubbed through a sieve, to bring the volume of soup to one liter. You can give this soup from a bottle.

Babies while breastfeeding

If the baby receives only breast milk, breastfeeding does not need to be stopped.

How does it work?

• Adding salt to meals will help resist dehydration by retaining fluid in the body.
• To add strength to the child, he should be given protein foods, such as boiled chicken, boiled eggs, steam omelet or turkey.
• Since raw fruits and vegetables can aggravate diarrhea, their hot processing is recommended - soups, decoctions, baking.
• Plant foods (apples, quince, blueberries and others), due to the content of tannins, help reduce the inflammatory process in the intestines. Most fruits, especially apples, have properties to resist rotting in the intestines. In addition, fruits contain pectins, which help to reduce fluid in the contents of the intestine, due to which the stool is normalized.
• Vitamin A contained in carrots will help to restore the intestinal mucosa faster.
• The presence of potassium in bananas, potatoes, and fruit juices will help replenish this important macronutrient in diarrhea.

Foods that cannot be eaten

• Very cold food as well as very hot food. Such food will be an additional irritant to the digestive tract.
• Products that contain caffeine.
• Fatty foods, including fried foods.
• Carbonated drinks. They will cause additional gas formation in the intestines.
• Milk products. It is difficult for the intestines of a baby with diarrhea to digest them.
• Nuts, whole grains, bran. Such products can also irritate the digestive tract.
• Raw vegetables and raw fruits.
• Tomato, pineapple, citrus juice.
• Legumes.
• Canned and smoked products.
• Jam, honey, chocolate and other sweets.
• Dishes with spices or spices.

Children, due to the not fully developed system of the digestive system, are prone to various disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, it is not uncommon for a child to develop diarrhea. It arises due to many reasons and, regardless of etiology, brings a lot of problems and discomfort to children, as well as troubles for parents.

During this period, it is important not only to alleviate the condition of the baby, but also try not to aggravate the problem. Indeed, with improper nutrition, the symptoms of diarrhea can only intensify. Therefore, a child with diarrhea needs a diet.

Diarrhea is characterized by increased bowel movements in a child. In this case, the stool becomes liquid and watery. Diarrhea is formed with increased intestinal motility, as well as with impaired absorption of fluid in the large intestine and the removal of a large amount of inflammatory secretion.

An upset stool can accompany various diseases in the child's body.

The main causes of diarrhea include:

The chair, depending on the cause of occurrence, has characteristic features. It may differ in consistency (watery, mushy, frothy, interspersed with mucus, pus, blood streaks), smell (rottenness, acid), color (brilliant, variegated, marsh, pink, colorless). With intolerance to cow protein, there may be pieces of undigested food in the stool.

Babies often suffer from loose stools. Diarrhea in them is manifested due to non-compliance with hygiene by parents, violation of the feeding regimen, celiac enteropathy, cystic fibrosis, allergies, dysbacteriosis. In addition, indigestion in infants is manifested due to stress, teething, climate change.

Diarrhea, like other symptoms, is a concomitant symptom of the underlying disease. At the same time, in addition to loose stools, the child can observe the appearance of vomiting, pain in the abdomen, rise or fall in body temperature.

Dehydration as a common consequence of diarrhea

When a liquid stool occurs in a child, about 150-200 ml of liquid comes out of the body at a time. At the same time, the baby suffers from a loss of 50-100 ml. Diarrhea often results in dehydration. It is identified by its characteristic features:

• constant feeling of thirst;
• dry skin and reduce its elasticity;
• weaknesses;
• lethargy;
• drowsiness;
• refusal to eat.

In an infant with dehydration, a large fontanel may sink.

Dehydration is dangerous as it leaches microelements important for life from the body. Therefore, with diarrhea, it is necessary to normalize the water-salt balance. For these purposes, the reception of Regidron, Glucosolan, Citroglucosolan, Oralit, Gastrolit is shown.

The powder must be diluted in 1 liter of water and given to the child in small portions (from 5 to 30 ml every 15 minutes). The dose of the drug and the intervals between drinking should be determined by the doctor. For a child up to a year, from 130 to 200 ml per 1 kg of body weight is required daily. Children under 5 years old need at least 100-170 ml per 1 kg, and for older children - 75-110 ml.

If there are no funds in the first-aid kit to restore the water-alkaline balance, then the solution can be prepared independently. In 1 liter of boiled water, add 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp soda and 1 tbsp. Sahara.

In addition to special solutions for rehydration, the child is allowed to receive:

• boiled water;
• tea (black, green and with chamomile);
• still mineral water;
• unsweetened compote;
• decoction of raisins, rose hips, carrots;
• juices diluted with water;
• rice broth.

With the correct balance of fluid in the body, the child observes the normalization of the urinary system. This can be tracked by evaluating the portions of urine and the frequency of trips to the toilet.

How to eat with diarrhea

Feeding a child with diarrhea should be carried out in stages:

1. First of all, it is necessary to restore the balance of fluid in the body.
2. After that, the child can eat, taking food in small portions, but often.
3. With visible signs of relief, you can switch to foods that are easy to digest. This is necessary for a gentle effect on the irritated intestinal mucosa.
4. At the last stage, after diarrhea, a transition to dietary food is carried out, which is selected individually, depending on the age of the child.

Nutrition of the child in the acute period

With acute manifestations of diarrhea, as well as temperature that has joined it, nausea, the child should only eat liquid or puree food. Grind boiled vegetables and cereals with a blender. During this period, to restore strength, it is allowed to consume lean meat in the form of soufflé, mashed potatoes. If the child does not refuse fish, he can cook a low-fat fillet, and then mash it with a fork.

The most important thing during this period is not to force the child to eat. He may refuse food. Then it is necessary to solder the child, offering other options for a light snack. If the child eats with force, it can provoke vomiting.

However, it is also prohibited to give a child complete freedom of choice of products. He can choose far from what he needs: chips, soda, sweets, chocolate is contraindicated in this situation. When exposed to diseased intestines, damage to the pancreas and liver can occur.

During this period, it is worth abandoning products that increase intestinal motility.

Induce fermentation under the force:

• fermented milk products;
• yogurt;
• cabbage;
• tomatoes;
• mushrooms;
• muffin;
• smoked products;
• pickles and pickling products.

How should a baby eat

Previously, doctors unanimously insisted that diarrhea can be dealt with only by refusing food in the acute period. For infants, this state of affairs was especially difficult. Currently, pediatricians are advised not to refuse to feed the baby with diarrhea. This is due to the fact that without nutrition, an exhausted body can suffer even more from a lack of proteins and other nutrients. As a result, there is a risk of impaired growth and development of the child, regeneration of intestinal tissues, and a decrease in immunity. Therefore, switching to regular food will be even more problematic.

If the child is fed on mother's milk, then feeding should be made more frequent, reducing a single meal. During this period, it is especially important that important trace elements enter the baby's body with mother's milk, contributing to its rapid recovery in case of intestinal upset.

With artificial feeding, the diet is based on how many times the child burps and whether there is vomiting with diarrhea. You need to feed the baby at least every 2 hours, giving about 50 ml of the mixture at a time. After 4 days, when the acute period is over, you can return to your usual diet.

If the child has already been introduced to complementary foods, then from the age of six months with diarrhea it is allowed to eat rice and buckwheat porridge on the water. Older kids are allowed yolk, meat broth, jelly, poultry puree.

Nutrition for older children

In the acute period of diarrhea, it is necessary to increase the number of meals, reducing the usual portions of food. Usually for a child after a year, an additional 2 meals are introduced. At first, the amount of food consumed by the child should be minimal.

At the beginning of the disease, the child is allowed to eat soups and cereals made from rice, buckwheat and pearl barley. From vegetables you can potatoes, carrots, zucchini and pumpkin. They contain pectin, which absorbs excess water, the remains of microorganisms, toxins. Also, in an acidic environment, it decomposes into trace elements, including calcium, relieves inflammation and restores the intestines.

For sweets, you can offer your child jelly from berries, blueberry juice, jelly, compote, mousse with lemon and cranberry juice. After 3 days, you can start using fermented milk products Acidophyllin, Biokefir, Narine. They have a beneficial effect on the intestinal microflora. It is worth remembering that their fat content should not exceed 2.5%.

A child can eat dryers, bagels, crackers. After the end of the acute stage, fat-free cottage cheese, banana puree, and baked apples are introduced into the diet. Raw fruits are allowed no earlier than a week later. Meat is introduced after 7 days. A child can be offered steamed chicken cutlets, veal soufflé, turkey cutlets. Steam fish is also allowed.

To speed up recovery, the reception is prohibited:

• raw vegetables;
• nuts;
• black bread;
• mushrooms;
• legumes;
• sweet drinks with gas.

The diarrhea diet should be followed for 2 weeks. During this time, normalization of bowel function occurs. After the child, you can switch to the usual diet, excluding harmful foods. Recovery can be judged by the appearance of the child's appetite.

Especially at an early age, the symptom is not only unpleasant, but also very dangerous. During diarrhea, the body loses a large amount of fluid, and with it vital and trace elements. Diarrhea may be accompanied by vomiting, fever, general weakness and other associated symptoms.

If a baby has frequent loose stools, an urgent medical consultation is necessary to determine its causes. Depending on the causes and accompanying symptoms, treatment and appropriate nutrition will be prescribed.

Diet for diarrhea in a child plays a very important role

Diarrhea is not an independent disease, it can be a symptom of such ailments:

• Food poisoning

With any of these diseases, intestinal dysfunction develops in children, therefore, nutrition that is especially sparing for its mucosa is necessary. The most common cause of diarrhea in childhood is food poisoning or toxic infections.

Food poisoning can occur due to the ingestion of stale foods or toxic substances. Toxic infection develops against the background of the use of products containing the products of their vital activity, as well as living cells of the infectious agent. The disease is acute and not transmitted by contact.

Microorganisms that enter the body under normal conditions do not multiply, in cases where the child's immunity is lowered, they can cause great harm to health. Under certain conditions, bacteria become pathogenic and can cause infectious diseases.

How to determine the cause of diarrhea in a child

The child very rarely wants to eat if he has a tummy ache

In order to choose a diet for a child, you need to determine the cause of the occurrence on the basis of this and a therapeutic diet will be prescribed. Symptoms of poisoning:

• General deterioration
• Weakness
• Heat
• Irritability
• Abdominal pain

Poisoning most often begins to manifest itself by the appearance of vomiting, then the temperature rises sharply and frequent diarrhea occurs.

This condition is very dangerous due to extreme dehydration of the body. Therefore, it is first necessary to replenish the fluid lost from the body against the background of infection.

First aid

As soon as the child has signs of poisoning, he needs to do a gastric lavage. For this, clean drinking water at room temperature is used at the rate of 0.02 liters per 1 kg of the baby's weight. After the baby drinks the required amount of liquid, he will begin to vomit. Then you need to give him sorbents:

1. Filtrum
2. Enterosgel
3. Lactofiltrum

The main stages of restoring the body of a child with diarrhea

Therapeutic nutrition for diarrhea should take place in several stages:

• Recovery of lost fluid
• Frequent and small meals
• Eating easily digestible and light foods that are not capable of damaging the intestinal mucosa
• Diet food appropriate for the age of the child

How to drink a child with diarrhea

When the child has diarrhea, you need to solder

In the absence of vomiting, you can start to solder the child in small doses (preferably from a spoon). There are many preparations containing mineral salts to replenish and retain fluids that have entered the baby's body:

1. Oralit
2. Regidron
3. Electrolyte
4. Gastrolit

In addition to special preparations, you can use decoctions and compotes, which, in addition to replenishing fluid, will provide the body with vitamins and minerals lost during the illness in order to restore strength and fight the consequences of the disease:

• A decoction of rice
• Rosehip tea
• Chamomile drink
• Compote without sugar from dried fruits
• Blueberry juice
• Compote with raisins
• Carrot decoction

To prepare a solution that can replenish the required amount of salt in the body, you need to take half a teaspoon of salt, soda and sugar in a glass of water. With this solution, you can drink the baby from a spoon every five minutes. The recipe for a drink to restore vitamins in the body:
Take a banana, mash it with a fork, add half a spoonful of salt and a spoonful of sugar and pour a liter of water.

What to feed a baby with diarrhea

During the acute period, accompanied by fever, nausea, the baby should be fed with light semi-liquid or puree food. Vegetables and cereals are cooked with more liquid than usual and frayed. The meat is served in the form of a soufflé, it must be cleaned of all bones, steamed and mashed with a fork.

If the child refuses to eat, do not force him to eat, this may cause vomiting. You can not feed the child with foods that he chose himself, they can be harmful to his fragile intestines. Such products include:

• Crisps
• sparkling water
• Candy
• chewing gum
• Chocolate

With their help, you can cause irreparable harm to the body: against the background of a diseased intestine, liver failure may also develop. In addition to dietary meals, complex vitamin preparations are prescribed to restore nutrients lost along with diarrhea and vomiting.

You should not feed your child foods that can increase intestinal motility and stimulate bile production. Such food can cause fermentation in the intestines:

1. Dairy products
2. Yoghurts
3. Cabbage
4. Tomatoes
5. Mushrooms
6. muffin
7. Smoked and pickled dishes
8. Pickles

Diet for babies

Don't force your child to eat

Despite the fact that doctors used to recommend abstaining from any food at all, modern pediatricians do not adhere to this concept. The lack of nutrients during fasting will adversely affect the development of the baby, the lack of protein for his growth, sudden weight loss, and lower immunity.

Under such conditions, it will be very difficult for the baby's body to recover quickly, tissue regeneration will slow down and the intestinal mucosa will be damaged for a long time. Therefore, it will be impossible to switch to ordinary food for a long time.

For breastfed babies, it is recommended to continue feeding much more often, while reducing the single dose.

Breast milk is an indispensable product for babies up to a year old, even during diarrhea: the biologically active substances contained in it help strengthen immunity and help the baby cope with the disease.

Feeding babies who are bottle-fed should be approached individually. The amount is determined based on the frequency of regurgitation and the presence or absence of vomiting. Feeding should be done every 2 hours, the volume of the mixture should be 50 ml. On the 4th day, feeding is gradually transferred to the usual mode. Babies from five months are allowed to feed with dairy-free rice or buckwheat porridge. Children at the age of eight months need to add yolk to the diet, and mashed meat.

Diet for children older than a year

At the beginning of the disease, it is necessary to add two more meals between feedings and reduce the amount of food per meal. The amount of food is increasing daily. A diet for diarrhea in a child includes the use of cereal soups:

• Rice
• buckwheat
• barley

Then you can switch to cereals from the same cereals. You can give your baby puree soups with vegetables:

• potatoes
• zucchini
• pumpkin

These vegetables are good for the intestines, because they contain a large amount of pectin in boiled form - a substance that can bind water and swell, form a mass that, passing through the esophagus, adsorbs the remains of microorganisms, bacteria and toxic substances.

When exposed to an acidic environment, pectin breaks down into trace elements, among which there is calcium, which has an anti-inflammatory and regenerating effect on the intestines. Kissels made from fresh berries are well suited as a dessert. With diarrhea, blueberry fruit drinks are also preferable.

Eating thermally processed vegetables and fruits contributes to the disappearance of symptoms of intoxication and the normalization of stool. You can include jellies, compotes, fruit drinks and mousses with the addition of lemon or cranberry juice in the diet. On the third day, it is allowed to include fermented milk products in the diet to restore the intestinal microflora:

• Acidophillin
• Biokefir
• lactonium
• Narine

All these drinks must be served fresh, their fat content should be minimal (no more than 2.5%). Allowed:

• Drying
• Biscuits
• Bagels
• White bread croutons

Then you can include fat-free cottage cheese, banana puree, baked apples in the diet. contain many useful minerals, contribute to the restoration of normal intestinal microflora and restore the intestinal mucosa.

You can switch to raw apples only after a week. It is recommended to grate the apple beforehand. In the second week, you can introduce meat products into the diet:

• Steam chicken meatballs
• Veal in the form of a soufflé
• ground turkey
• For a couple, you can make cutlets or meatballs from lean fish meat.

Prohibited Products

In order not to harm the digestive system that restores its functions, the following foods should not be eaten:

• Raw vegetables
• nuts
• Black bread
• Mushrooms
• Legumes
• Sweet carbonated drinks

In order not to damage the irritated mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines, all dishes and drinks should be given to the child in a warm form. The diet must be observed for at least two weeks after the disappearance of the symptoms of the disease. The diet for the child is prescribed individually by the doctor.

Sugar can only be given as an additive to drinks. You can not cook soups on rich, fatty meat broths.

A well-chosen diet for diarrhea in children helps to restore health. Unfortunately, loose stools in babies are not uncommon. In fact, prolonged diarrhea is not a pathology, but only a symptom that indicates a rather serious malfunction of the digestive system in a 1-year-old child. Diarrhea appears with allergic reactions, intestinal infection, intolerance or sensitivity to certain drugs, poisoning and dysbacteriosis.

Treatment for a child who is already one year old should be selected by a specialized specialist. Parents of the baby must understand that nutrition is very important for diarrhea in children, as it helps to speed up the process of restoring the digestive system.

Methods for organizing a diet

Diarrhea, which appears during poisoning and intestinal infection, is a kind of body defense. We can say that diarrhea in a child of 1 year helps to remove a large amount of toxins and toxins. However, this condition very often leads to severe dehydration. In babies who are 1 year old, this happens quickly. That is why you need to immediately begin treatment and use proper nutrition for the child with diarrhea.

With the development of intestinal infections and other diseases that are accompanied by diarrhea, certain rules must be followed. The child should eat easily digestible food that will not affect the intestines and stomach. The baby should be given the minimum portion size. Dishes for a 1 year old child are best stewed or boiled. It is necessary to give him as much liquid as possible. Choose dishes for catering for diarrhea in a child should only be those that are 100% consistent with the age of your beloved offspring.

It is necessary to use the diet after the diarrhea stops. Then, properly selected nutrition for a 1-year-old child can be gradually expanded, giving preference to freshly prepared dishes. However, it is better not to introduce whole milk into the diet. A properly selected diet for diarrhea should contain low-fat fermented milk products.

Compliance with the drinking regimen with diarrhea prevents undesirable consequences for the still fragile child's body. A child who is already 1 year old should only consume healthy drinks, such as tea with lemon, filtered water, and a decoction of rose hips.

Of course, summer is a great opportunity to prepare fresh fruit compotes. However, for babies who suffer from diarrhea, it is better to give drinks brewed from dried fruits. To restore the water-salt balance, mineral water without gas and a decoction of raisins are suitable, which are recommended to drink after a bowel movement. Salt solution (1 liter of water, 1 tablespoon of sugar, half of 1 teaspoon of salt and the same amount of soda) will help prevent dehydration.

In order for a diet for diarrhea in a child of 2 years of age to give the desired result, fatty meats, as well as offal: liver, brains, kidneys, must be excluded from consumption. You can not offer the child smoked food and canned food. It is forbidden to introduce lactic acid products into the diet, which have an increased percentage of fat content. It is necessary to exclude vegetables that can cause fermentation in the intestines. Such products include beets, cabbage, cucumbers, radishes and rutabaga. It is not allowed to offer the baby canned vegetables.

ARVE Error:

Even if the child is two years old, you should not introduce mushrooms into his diet. It is necessary to limit the consumption of berries and fruits that belong to acidic varieties. You can not give your child cakes, fresh pastries, cream cakes, black breads.

On the first day of illness, it is necessary to strictly follow the doctor's recommendations, since the list of allowed products is small. However, using them, each mother can independently prepare healthy and very tasty dishes. Bread, white bread, biscuits and dryers are necessarily introduced into the diet. Meat should be chosen lean varieties, before grinding it should be freed from films. It is better to make meatballs from minced meat and steam them.

It is allowed to give the child cereals cooked in water, in which you can add a little butter, salt and sugar. With great pleasure, the baby will eat pudding made from absolutely any cereal. Every other day, cook pasta for your child. Vermicelli is well absorbed.

Diet for diarrhea in children should be strictly observed. The diet is aimed at protecting the baby's body from toxins.

Indigestion causes discomfort, and diarrhea in a small patient cannot be left unattended. Diarrhea is not an independent disease.

Diarrhea is a symptom of an illness that must be identified and treated in a timely manner. Prolonged diarrhea will cause severe dehydration.

An important stage of treatment is the elimination of dehydration

With diarrhea, a lot of fluid is lost, and with it trace elements. It is necessary to make up for losses and do it right. If the patient is not vomiting, then you should try to drink more water.

Often babies are reluctant to drink water, so they need to be soldered with special solutions. In pharmacies you can buy Oralit, Regidron, Gastrolit and others.

The solution is easy to prepare: a sachet of the drug is dissolved in 1 liter of water. The child should be given liquid in a small spoon at short intervals.

The doctor determines a single dose. The drink should be warm, so the liquid will be quickly absorbed.

It is not always at hand to have a bag with the drug. At home, it is not difficult to make a solution that will restore the level of essential salts and minerals. The basis is purified, boiled water.

Dissolve 1 tsp in it. salt, soda and add a little sugar.

There are several more options to make a healthy solution for the child, with which you can replenish the level of nutrients in the body.

In 1 liter of purified warm water, which must first be boiled, add a banana. It must first be mashed into a pulp. There also add 2 tbsp. l. sugar and some salt.

Those children who do not have an allergic reaction to citrus fruits are allowed to make a delicious solution: pour juice squeezed from two oranges into one liter of water, which can be replaced with grapefruits.

Add a little salt and sugar to the liquid so that the child drinks with pleasure.

It does not matter if the child does not want to drink special solutions. You should prepare his favorite drink, which the child will drink with pleasure.

It can be dried fruit compote, green or weak black tea, rosehip broth, chamomile.

Well replenishes the lost substances in the body decoction of rice, carrots. You can offer non-carbonated alkaline water.

Diet for acute diarrhea

Nutrition for acute manifestation of diarrhea should be organized correctly. Often, an increase in body temperature can join diarrhea, the patient feels sick.

Food should be only liquid or crushed. Porridge, boiled vegetables should be chopped with a blender.

It is allowed to give meat, but it must be lean. It is used to make puree or soufflé. You can give the baby fish fillet dishes, which must first be kneaded with a fork.

Before feeding a child with diarrhea, it should be remembered that the child should eat at will. If the baby refuses to eat, then you should not force him.

Forced eating can induce vomiting. Instead of food, you can offer a drink.

When offering a child to choose a dish, it is worth remembering that nutrition should be correct and sparing. The baby may want foods that can aggravate the situation.

From carbonated drinks, chips, chocolate, sweets, liver or pancreas failure may occur.

In the acute period of diarrhea, such products are strictly forbidden to be eaten by patients at any age.

Diet for babies up to a year

Doctors do not allow the use of a starvation diet for children under 1 year old. Prolonged soldering of a child without feeding is harmful to him: the baby develops a protein deficiency, body weight decreases, and the mucous membrane of the digestive organs is poorly restored.

Breast milk is the best food for a baby. During breastfeeding, the dose of milk for one time should be reduced, while the number of feedings should be increased. The baby is applied to the breast for 7-10 minutes, but more often than usual.

Breast milk is very important for babies under 1 year of age. It has all the nutrients so necessary for the development of babies.

During illness, interferon, immunoglobulin A, lysozyme, lactoferrin help the baby's body fight the disease and strengthen the immune system.

If the baby is on artificial feeding, then the same tactics must be followed. Feeding should be carried out more often, and portions should be halved.

It is necessary to exclude cow's milk, mixtures should contain a small amount of lactose or be lactose-free.

Diet for children 1 - 3 years old

After a year, the baby's menu expands significantly, but many still have breast milk or formula in it.

During diarrhea, grown-up babies need to reduce portions, foods should be crushed. The diet requires the presence of a large amount of liquid.
