Children don't like to eat. In this society, the age of marriage has generally declined, and more and more young people have become parents. Because of this, many young parents will obviously feel at a loss when dealing with their children. To give one of the most common examples, children are very resistant to eating, which leads to slower growth and development than children of the same age. So, at this time, how should a parent respond? The following are some effective remedies.
1, boiled malt hawthorn
Required materials: dried hawthorn 30g, malt 10g.
There are two kinds of hawthorn on the market now. The first kind is fruit, fresh hawthorn. This fresh hawthorn contains enough water, which is suitable for mashing into hawthorn sauce or as a fruit for appetizing and relieving boredom before and after meals. The second kind is dried hawthorn. The moisture content of this kind of hawthorn is greatly reduced after professional artificial drying. This kind of hawthorn is mainly used for boiling water or making wine. The appetizing function of malt is also recognized by the public, which can well eliminate flatulence in children's stomachs.
Step: (1) Dry clean the malt and hawthorn and put them into the pot.
(2) Add a proper amount of water and cook for half an hour.
2, sweet potato water
Required materials: grain bud 10g, 2 sweet potatoes, and half a piece of sugar.
Step (1) Peel the sweet potatoes one by one and cut them into small pieces. Clean the grain buds.
(2) Put the rice buds and sweet potatoes into the pot together, and then add a proper amount of water into the pot.
(3) After the water boils, add sugar and cook for 10 to 20 minutes.
Sweet potato is a coarse grain. Eating sweet potatoes often can dredge the stomach, and grain buds can strengthen the stomach and open the spleen. Both of them are beneficial to gastrointestinal digestion without hurting the stomach.
Children don't like eating and massage. The human body itself is a huge treasure. There are many acupoints hidden in the human body, each of which plays a different role and has its own unique function. Although various acupoints are scattered in various parts of the human body, they are inextricably linked. If we can correctly understand the acupoints and clearly know what diseases the acupoints correspond to, then we can treat ourselves through our own massage. So, if the child doesn't like to eat, where should he press it?
1, abdomen
Although the belly area of the human body is not very large, the energy contained in the belly is indeed huge. Just like the large intestine, small intestine, stomach and liver, some important organs of the human body are located there. When the child is not interested in eating, parents can let the child lie flat on the sofa or bed, spread out one hand, let the palm gently fit the child's abdomen, then gently massage the abdomen 20 times clockwise, and then gently massage it 20 times counterclockwise. Just massage repeatedly for about half an hour. Parents are advised to massage before meals every day and start massage half an hour after meals.
2. Back
There is a spine behind the human body, which plays a supporting role. Not only that, there are many important points, large and small, on both sides of the spine. For people who don't like to eat, parents can also find acupuncture points on both sides of the spine for massage to achieve therapeutic effect. Let the child lie prone, parents put their palms flat on the child's back, put the middle finger on the spine, and gently massage the thumb and position.
