Poisoning due to leftover food after Tet
Doctor Tran Quoc Khanh - Viet Duc Friendship Hospital, said that during and after the Lunar New Year, there were many patients hospitalized for digestive disorders, the main cause of which was often due to families having the habit of storing food to eat for a few days of Tet.

Many people see that the pigs are oil on the outside and still have a characteristic aroma, so they still try to eat them. In case of mild poisoning, abdominal pain, severe diarrhea.
To prevent food poisoning after Tet, health experts recommend that people should boldly eliminate foods that are suspected of spoiling, especially processed foods such as ham, crab, spices, cooked foods that are cooked many times. For Chung cakes, nutritionists recommend that people should not try to eat cakes that have become molded for "reasonable goods". Even when removing the mold, the remaining part of the banh chung is not safe for users.
Weight gain, obesity
Typical foods during Tet are very high in energy, dishes tend to be high in sugar, fat, animal protein and the "dred meat" diet of green vegetables are the culprits for weight gain in children.
Therefore, overweight and obese children are more likely to increase their fat intake during Tet. Not to mention that increased blood sugar makes children feel anorexia and do not want to eat other foods, which is not good for children, especially nutrition.
In addition, the amount of sugar in candy and jam when eaten is easily fermented, causing bloating, easily causing digestive disorders such as stomach or heartburn.
To prevent children from experiencing the above condition, Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Xuan Ninh - Nutritionist of Medlatec Hospital recommends that families should limit their children's intake of sweets. So feed them a little, not before meals, because that way they will stop eating rice.
Constipation after Tet
Constipation is very common when even after Tet, many families do not quickly supplement green vegetables but still take advantage of all the meat and processed foods left over during Tet.
Therefore, doctors recommend immediately adding vegetables with a lot of fiber such as broccoli, cabbage, avocado, beans, papaya fruits, dragon fruit, mango, plums... in addition to dark chocolate, grains, yogurt are also very good for people's digestive system after a "rich" Tet holiday.
In addition, you should avoid eating spicy foods such as ginger, chili, cinnamon, and spices with hot essential oils.

After Tet, when you are away from unscientific grilled sleep, experts advise that you should exercise regularly and exercise regularly, which is also an effective remedy to help prevent and treat constipation.
