3. Protect your child's appetite, because it is best to eat when you have an appetite. To protect your child's appetite, don't make too much noise when eating, don't eat when watching TV, don't force your child to eat, and don't restrict your child strictly. Don't eat some sweets before eating, and your child's food must be delicious.

4. The child’s abdomen must be kept warm to avoid irritating the stomach and intestines and infecting the respiratory tract.

5. Pay close attention to your child’s digestive tract to ensure it is unobstructed and that he or she develops a good habit of regular bowel movements.

6. Pay attention to hygiene, wash your hands before eating, and eat clean and fresh food. Eat more easily digestible food, avoid fried easily digestible food, and read while eating.

7. Eat less fried foods: Because this type of food is not easy to digest, it will increase the burden on the digestive tract. Eating too much will cause indigestion, but it will also increase blood lipids, which is not good for health.

8. Eat less pickled foods: These foods contain more salt and some carcinogens, so it is not advisable to eat too much.

9. Eat less raw, cold and irritating foods: Raw, cold and irritating foods are highly irritating to the gastrointestinal mucosa and can easily cause diarrhea or gastrointestinal inflammation.

10. Eat regularly: Studies have shown that eating regularly and in fixed amounts can form a conditioned reflex, which is beneficial to the secretion of digestive glands and more conducive to digestion.

11. Regular and quantitative: Eat an appropriate amount of food at each meal and eat three meals at regular times every day. At the prescribed time, whether you are hungry or not, you should take the initiative to eat to avoid being too hungry or too full.

12. Appropriate temperature: The temperature of food should be neither hot nor cold.

13. Chew slowly: Reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. The more you chew your food, the more saliva you secrete, which protects the gastric mucosa.

14. Drinking water time: The best time to drink drinking water is in the morning on an empty stomach, and 1 hour before each meal. Drinking water immediately after a meal will dilute the gastric juice, and soaking rice in soup will also affect the digestion of food.

15. Pay attention to keep warm: stomach cold can damage the function of the stomach, so pay attention to keep the stomach warm and avoid cold.

A healthy body is very important for children's growth. If they are sick, it will not only affect the health of children, but also bring great obstacles to their growth. Children's indigestion also seriously affects children's health. Because children don't understand anything, they need adults to take care of them in all aspects, and eating also requires parents' decisions. Therefore, in order to prevent children from indigestion, parents must pay attention to letting their children develop good habits from an early age.
