Sweet potatoes, also known as sweet potatoes, are rich in fiber and have the effect of invigorating the spleen and stimulating appetite. Therefore, many mothers will give their babies sweet potatoes to alleviate the symptoms of indigestion, but the use of sweet potatoes also needs to be determined according to the baby's physical condition. Do mothers know that babies with diarrhea can eat sweet potatoes?
1. Diarrhea cannot be caused by eating sweet potatoes. Because sweet potatoes contain a large amount of crude fiber, taking them can accelerate intestinal peristalsis and stimulate the baby's intestines, which can worsen the condition. Therefore, if the baby has symptoms of diarrhea, mothers should not give the baby sweet potatoes during this period of diarrhea. At this time, mothers should choose some soft and liquid foods to alleviate the symptoms of baby diarrhea. It is better to avoid these coarse fiber foods.
2. During diarrhea, apart from sweet potatoes, other coarse fiber foods should also be avoided as much as possible. In addition to sweet potatoes, which are rich in dietary fiber, foods such as soybeans and radishes also contain a large amount of crude fiber. Therefore, during the period of baby diarrhea, these foods should also be avoided besides sweet potatoes. Moreover, most of these coarse fiber foods have the function of moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements. Taking them will only worsen the baby's diarrhea, but will not help with the condition. During the period of baby diarrhea, mothers must pay attention to their baby's diet and first understand the effectiveness of food before administering it to their baby.
