The baby doesn't like to eat, and always runs around. What should I do?

In summer, the baby's appetite will get worse;

1. In summer, the amount of perspiration of children is three times that of normal body temperature. If you sweat a lot, your child will lose a lot of water, salt and vitamins, resulting in imbalance of water and salt metabolism. At the same time, the chloride ion required by gastric acid is also reduced, which reduces the acidity and digestibility of gastric juice and affects the digestive function of children. (Adults have a bad appetite, which is the same principle. )

2. Summer is the high season of zinc deficiency in children, and zinc in the body is constantly lost with sweat. Zinc is a component of taste substances and plays an important role in taste. When zinc is deficient, the oral mucosa cells are underdeveloped and easy to fall off, blocking the pores of taste buds, which makes it difficult for taste buds to feel the stimulation of food, resulting in decreased taste sensitivity and appetite.

3. Hot weather in summer will affect children's sleep, and poor sleep will affect children's appetite.

The child has no appetite? We'd better do this!

1, let children eat more "bitterness"

Giving children bitter food in summer can relieve summer heat. You can give children more bitter gourd, celery, lettuce, bitter vegetables, lotus seeds, asparagus and so on.

2. Let children drink more warm water.

Children can get 800 ml of water from soup and other foods every day, but they need to consume 1 100- 1500 ml of water in summer to meet their needs. Parents should give their children more water, and don't wait until dinner to remember to give them water. In addition to drinking warm water, you can also give your child light salt water, vegetable water, mung bean soup and so on. Mung bean soup is easy to make and children love it.

3. Let children eat more protein food.

When the weather is too hot, a lot of sweating will accelerate the catabolism of protein in the body, which is prone to insufficient intake of protein. Therefore, parents should give their children enough protein food in their daily diet, such as milk, eggs, lean meat, fish, soybean milk or bean products.

4. Let children eat more fresh fruits.

Give children more fruits that clear away heat and relieve summer heat, such as watermelon, banana, sugarcane, mango, kiwi fruit and pitaya, to supplement vitamins.

5. Let the children eat lightly.

Give children more light food, such as bean porridge, lotus leaf porridge, mint porridge, noodle soup and so on. You can also make some cold dishes for children to stimulate their appetite, such as cucumber, cold tomato, cold radish skin, cold lettuce and mashed garlic eggplant.

Step 6 make food look more delicious

Parents should pay more attention to good food and let their children take the initiative to eat it. For example, when cooking rice porridge, you can dice all kinds of fruits and sprinkle them on the porridge surface, or make poached eggs, sausages and ketchup into beautiful patterns. Children will eat more when they see something fresh.

7. Let children exercise more.

Parents should let their children go out to exercise more and stop being couch potatoes. When the weather is cool in the morning and evening, take the children out for a walk, running, swimming and cycling. Let children exercise more, consume energy, and naturally have an appetite.
