1. Avoid feeding your child too much
Eating too much or eating continuously will put pressure on the intestines as well as the entire digestive system, thereby leading to intestinal problems.
2. Drink enough water
Drinking enough water is important for your child's intestines and health. When provided with enough water, it helps children defecate normally and the digestive system is cleaned. This helps eliminate toxins properly and has a positive impact on your child's intestinal health.
3. Add high-fiber foods
Fiber is important for health, along with protein, carbohydrates and fats. Fiber helps absorb sugar, binds waste well, so children have normal bowel movements leading to a healthy digestive system.
4. Avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics
Antibiotics kill both beneficial and harmful bacteria. In the long term, the loss of beneficial bacteria greatly affects health and the gut. So only give your child antibiotics when absolutely necessary.
5. Supplement prebiotics and probiotics
Prebiotics and probiotics are foods containing live bacteria that are very good for the intestinal digestive system. Eating these foods helps reduce the risk of children getting sick, especially gastrointestinal infections. Children can be fed natural probiotics such as curd, yogurt, kimchi, and pickled sauerkraut.
