In the old society, it was enough to have food. With the progress of society, many children begin to be picky eaters. Many parents worry about how to feed their children in different ways every day, but there are many wrong ways.

1, easy to feel full.

The capacity of soaked rice will increase, so that children will feel full easily after eating, and the corresponding intake per meal will decrease. In this way, children will always be in a state of semi-starvation, which will affect their growth and development.

2. Insufficient chewing

Eating soaked rice is easy to swallow, but at the same time it will also reduce saliva secretion due to insufficient crushing of food. Saliva secretion can remove and rinse food residues attached to teeth and mouth, and there are some lysozyme in saliva, which has certain bactericidal and bacteriostatic effects and plays an important role in preventing dental caries and periodontal disease.

In addition, chewing can promote the normal development of teeth, maxilla and face, promote local blood circulation and lymphatic reflux, and enhance metabolism. If you don't chew enough, these functions will be weakened, seriously affecting the symmetry and beauty of facial muscles.

3. Loss of appetite

Swallowing the soaked rice reduces the chewing action, accordingly reduces the chewing reflex, resulting in a decrease in the amount of digestive juice secreted by the stomach, pancreas, liver and gallbladder. However, coarse food without fine grinding directly enters the digestive tract, which requires the digestive organs to secrete more digestive juice and gain more digestive energy. If this goes on, your appetite will gradually decrease.

4, affect digestion

Unchewed rice will increase the burden on the stomach, and excessive soup will dilute the gastric juice, thus affecting the digestion and absorption of food, which will easily cause stomach problems after a long time. Therefore, for the healthy growth of children, don't let children develop the habit of drinking soup and soaking rice. Rather, let children chew slowly, spend more time and don't rush into it. Don't be reluctant when you can't eat, just wait until you are hungry.

Soup soaked rice is a mixture of soup and rice. Because it contains more water, rice will be softer and easier to swallow. Sometimes people will shorten the chewing time, and food will be swallowed quickly with soup before being chewed. This not only makes people "know the taste", but also does not stimulate the taste nerve on the tongue. Food must be chewed with teeth first, so that saliva can be evenly mixed into food, and amylase can give full play to turn starch into maltose.

The soup soaked in rice directly enters the stomach without chewing, which will inevitably increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, and the nutrients in the food are not easily absorbed completely. The stomach and pancreas produce little digestive juice, which increases the digestive burden of the stomach. Over time, it is easy to cause the attack of stomach trouble. Therefore, it is better to eat less soup and rice.
