Children can eat Pseudostellaria heterophylla, because Pseudostellaria heterophylla is relatively mild in medicinal properties and has the functions of invigorating qi and strengthening spleen. It can improve the baby's anorexia, sallow and emaciated face, long urine and thin stool due to weakness of spleen and stomach. Pseudostellaria heterophylla will not cause obvious symptoms of getting angry in children, unlike ginseng, so newborns or children can eat Pseudostellaria heterophylla.

However, if the baby has damp heat in the body or accumulated heat in the spleen and stomach, it is not suitable for eating Radix Pseudostellariae. Because Pseudostellaria heterophylla is a drug for invigorating qi, the child has damp heat in the body, which will lead to the aggravation of damp heat in the child. For example, children will have dry stools and very yellow urine, which may even lead to adverse reactions such as sores on the mouth and tongue. Therefore, if the child is qi deficiency, he can eat Radix Pseudostellariae. If it is damp heat constitution and spleen and stomach heat constitution, it is not recommended to eat Radix Pseudostellariae.

It is recommended to consult a doctor for specific administration methods.
