Durian is rich in vitamin C, B6, folate, potassium, magnesium and fiber. These nutrients help strengthen the immune system, develop bones and teeth, improve digestion and provide energy for the body. In particular, the folate content in durian is important for the development of the brain and nervous system of children.
When feeding children durian, mothers should remind children under 2 years old to avoid eating durian because the digestive system is not complete, which can lead to indigestion or allergies.
Durian contains high levels of natural sugar, which can cause rapid weight gain if eaten too much. Therefore, it is necessary to control the amount of durian in children's diet. The high fiber content in durian can cause bloating or diarrhea if the child eats too much.
Although rare, some children may be allergic to durian, which can include itching, rashes or swelling. If you have unusual signs, stop feeding and consult your doctor.
Nutritionists recommend that children aged 2 and over can eat durian, but should start with a small amount to check their body's reaction. Durian should be combined with other foods such as green vegetables, low-sugar fruits and cereals to ensure a balanced diet. Children should not eat durian late at night to avoid affecting their sleep.
Durian is a rich source of nutrients, but feeding children needs to be strictly controlled.
When used properly, durian can be an interesting and nutritious addition to children's diet. However, always monitor children's reactions and consult a doctor when necessary to ensure their health safety.
