Astragalus stewed chicken soup can be eaten by children, but should be consumed in moderation under the guidance of a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner.
Astragalus is a traditional Chinese medicine that belongs to the spleen and lung meridians. It has the functions of tonifying qi and promoting yang, benefiting Wei and consolidating the surface, inducing diuresis and eliminating swelling, generating body fluid and nourishing blood, promoting stagnation and paralysis (to make the paralyzed meridians and veins smooth), supporting toxin and draining pus (to expel pus and toxins in the body), and restraining sores and regenerating the muscles (to help the sores to heal more quickly, and to promote the growth of new flesh). This product should be used with caution for those who have heat in yin deficiency and those who have dryness and heat that injure the body fluid.
Chicken soup is a food with rich nutritional value, which can satisfy the nutrients needed by the human body and promote the growth and development of children’s organism. It is recommended to reasonably match the food, moderate consumption, balanced nutrition.
Note that medicinal diets are not only weak in efficacy, but also slow in onset of action and need to be consumed for a long period of time before they may be effective. Therefore, medicinal diets cannot be equated with medicines, let alone replacing medicines in treating diseases. If children are not feeling well, take your baby to the pediatric department of the hospital as soon as possible for consultation and treatment under the guidance of a professional doctor, and children should use medication under the supervision of an adult.
