Unlike adults, babies have a high metabolism and rapid growth and development, which is known in Chinese medicine as the “pure Yang body”. In a normal state to maintain a dynamic balance, once there are external reasons to break this balance, it is easy to lead to internal heat on fire. A, what causes the baby on fire 1, yin and Yang is not adjusted Chinese medicine believes that “children for the pure Yang body”, Yang surplus and Yin deficiency, prone to Yin deficiency fire, false fire rising conditions. Therefore, children “on fire” is often “false fire”, “real fire” together, and affect each other, mutual cause and effect, forming a vicious circle, which makes treatment very difficult. The real fire, generally due to over-eating, resulting in stomach fire, to remind parents, in order to prevent baby “fire”, it is best to rationalize the baby / mother’s diet structure. 2, the invasion of evil Chinese medicine that the baby’s own internal organs are delicate, the immune system is fragile, a variety of disease such as heat, humidity, dryness, etc. are easy to take advantage of the opportunity to invade the baby’s body, once the evil stays in the body, it is easy to “depression and fire”. 3, constipation caused by the “fire” children’s teeth chewing function is poor, like to eat fine food, intake of fiber is relatively small. And usually high protein, high-calorie food eating more, if the plain activity (children over 3 years old) and less, it is easy to lead to gastrointestinal digestive disorders, accumulation of food into stagnation, stagnation in the gastrointestinal constipation, which leads to heat, fire. On the other hand, the child’s intestinal peristaltic function is weak and the secretion of digestive juices is low, which easily leads to constipation, which is a common manifestation of internal dryness due to deficiency fire. Second, what is the harm of fire? 1, dry stool Constipated babies feel pain when defecating, so they often delay defecation as much as possible, resulting in drier stools, forming a vicious circle. In addition, constipation causes the baby’s body residual food is not discharged in a timely manner through the stool, and over time will produce toxins in the gastrointestinal tract, forming harmful substances. Harmful substances will reduce immunity, the human body is vulnerable to external viruses. Long-term poor defecation will cause later psychological resistance to defecation, the formation of long-term habits without defecation, the future habitual constipation. 2, yellow urine due to the accumulation of fire in the body, sweating, urination, skin and breathing water evaporation, resulting in more water loss, these are also the reasons for dry and hard stools. Long-term urine short yellow, on behalf of the baby’s body often water deficiency, normal physiological activities and physical development is bound to be affected. 3, mouth and tongue sores mouth and tongue sores lead to children refuse to eat, and even reluctant to drink water, so that the baby’s normal nutrition supply is insufficient, affecting physical development. In addition, such symptoms as sores on the tongue, not pay attention to the problem of corns, commonly known as “rotten corners of the mouth” is easy to cause. 4, sleeplessness Sleeplessness leads to disruption of life and rest, but also makes the baby prone to anger, mental irritability, impatience, mood swings and other conditions, which are likely to make the child’s physiology deviated, further aggravating the problem of fire. Ultimately, this leads to stunted growth, decreased resistance, viral attack and fever, and other serious consequences, thus affecting the normal physical and mental development of the baby. 5, increased eye discharge (eye droppings), is a common eye problem in babies, Chinese medicine believes that this is external wind-heat poisonous evil or over-eating spicy, spleen and stomach heat, heat into the liver meridian and cause disease. 6, there is breath breath often represents the baby gastrointestinal dysfunction, the body’s “stomach fire” is generally related to improper feeding and food accumulation. Breath will affect the daily life experience, and the stomach fire will be serious when synchronized with the problem of dry stools, forming a vicious circle of fire. Three, how to reduce the fire? 1, choose breastfeeding After the baby is born, it is best to give breastfeeding and ensure sufficient breast milk, because breast milk is the most ideal food for babies, because breast milk contains a high concentration of oligosaccharides, in the intestinal tract can quickly improve the reproduction of beneficial bacteria, will not make the baby on fire, but the mother eating stew-type food should be controlled. 2, pay attention to the daily diet usually we should pay more attention to the baby’s diet, such as eating more vegetables, to control the intake of spicy, greasy, high-calorie food, when cooking we can pay attention to the nutritional mix, for the baby is a twofer, at the same time, you can also do some fire soup and so on, such as green bean soup, which is our most common, so that in terms of diet our The baby will not be lack of nutrition due to fire. 3, reasonable living and rest to train the baby to drink plain water habits, replenish the baby’s body needs water, but also in the intestinal tract cleaning, eliminating waste. In the living to ensure that the baby has enough sleep, because not enough sleep or poor sleep quality, caused by fire. Also pay attention to keep the indoor environment fresh, so that the child to keep a happy mood. In addition, you should also consider the combination of work and rest, do not let the child overwork.
