7. Foods that children should not eat for gastroenteritis
(1) Avoid flatulence food
Intestinal flatulence will aggravate diarrhea and make the disease migrate unhealed. Therefore, flatulence foods, such as glutinous rice, sweet potato, soybean, tofu, soybean milk, mung bean, red bean and lotus seed, should not be eaten. Too much milk can also cause flatulence, and patients with acute gastroenteritis should be restricted.
(2) Avoid high cellulose foods
Foods high in cellulose can promote intestinal peristalsis and aggravate diarrhea. People with acute gastroenteritis should avoid eating. These foods are: corn, brown rice, oats, soybeans, celery, bitter gourd, apples, carrots, spinach, grapefruit, oranges and so on.
(3) Avoid high-fat foods
Fat meat, cream, animal offal, animal oil, frying, etc. contain high fat, which leads to slippery intestines and prolonged diarrhea, and should be avoided. Even if cooking with vegetable oil, you should pay attention to putting less, and try to be light.
(4) Avoid supercooling food
Too cold food will lead to ischemia of gastrointestinal mucosal blood vessels when they contract in cold, which is not conducive to the regression of inflammation. Therefore, patients with gastroenteritis should avoid cold food, cold drinks, ice cream and cold fruits.
