Baby honey before 1 year old has risk of death due to sudden death

Every mother and father are anxious to feed all their nutritious foods to their baby, but Xie Haihong, deputy chief physician of child care clinics at the Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital, told reporters that some things cannot be "early fed" or they may be fatal if they become serious.

For example, honey. You may not know that if you feed honey to children under 1 year of age, it may result in sudden death!

Feeding honey within 1 year old has a risk of sudden death

Ms. Wang (a pseudonym) was only 1 year old. She felt a bit constipation earlier because she gave the baby some honey water. In the past two days, she saw something on the Internet. She mentioned that if a child is under 1 year old, eating honey may cause death. She was terrified.

Is this true or false? The reporter interviewed Xie Haihong, deputy chief physician of the Child Health Clinic at the Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital. Dr. Xie said very seriously: “It is indeed something!”

Originally, studies have found that honey may be contaminated by botulinum spores during brewing and transportation, because the bees may bring pollen and honey polluted by botulinum spores back to the beehive during pollen collection. Botox spores are highly adaptable and can survive at high temperatures of 100°C.

This contamination is not a problem for adults, but it is extremely dangerous for small babies. Xie Haihong said that their intestinal microbiota is not perfect, and Botox spores are particularly prone to germinate and produce toxins in the intestine, causing poisoning. "Symptoms often include constipation, weakness in the muscles of the head and neck, weakness in sucking, difficulty in swallowing, and loss of generalized muscle tone. Severe paralysis can be caused by respiratory palsy. Therefore, infants under 1 year old should not consume natural honey."

Avoid feeding milk mango within 2 years of age

Xie Haihong also told reporters that apart from honey, babies of different ages also have something that they cannot eat.

For example, milk bars are not suitable for babies under 2 years of age. This is because the baby's digestive enzyme secretion is insufficient or activity is not high, there will be symptoms of indigestion, such as vomiting, abdominal distension, diarrhea and so on. And ordinary milk can not keep up with the nutritional needs of the baby at this time, so for children 1-3 years old, should continue to breastfeed until 2 years old, or to give less than the equivalent of 350ml of liquid milk infant formula milk powder, should not Directly feed ordinary liquid milk, adult milk powder, or soy protein powder.

In addition, many parents know that seafood, eggs and other foods can easily lead to baby allergies, but do not know some fruits will.

"Some fruits are very likely to cause allergies, not suitable for the baby to eat." Xie Haihong said that, for example, mangoes contain some chemicals, immature mangoes also contain aldehydes, which have a certain stimulating effect on the mucous membranes of the skin, causing Lips contact dermatitis; Pineapple contains a variety of active substances such as bromelain, which has a certain stimulating effect on skin blood vessels. Some people will soon have skin itching, numbness of limbs and mouth, etc.; peaches, kiwifruit and other surfaces Fluffy fruit contains a large number of macromolecular substances, infants have poor dialysis capacity, can not digest these substances, it is easy to cause allergic reactions.

The tea is good but the baby is not suitable

After the hot weather, the baby's drinking water demand has also increased, but Xie Haihong reminds moms and dads that whether it is tea or functional drinks, it is best not to give the baby to drink.

"Tea is definitely a healthy drink, but it is not suitable for children." Xie Haihong said that the caffeine in tea has certain excitement on the central nervous system. Children's nervous system is not yet fully developed and is more sensitive to caffeine, so it is best not to Give your baby tea. Of particular note is that because caffeine can also enter the baby through milk, mothers who are breastfeeding also need to drink less.

Functional beverages are only suitable for specific groups of people or under certain conditions. They are harmful if they are not consumed under specific conditions. Most of them are supplemented with energy and electrolytes. Drinking too much of these high-salt and high-sugar drinks will increase the children's body burden and kidneys. Excretion burden. Beverages contain a variety of additives. Children are more difficult than adults to excrete themselves through detoxification. Some functional beverages contain components such as caffeine that stimulate the central nervous system and can cause children to become addicted. Excessive caffeine can also affect children’s cognitive ability and lead to slow response. Therefore, it is generally not recommended for children, adolescents or adults to choose a functional beverage as a daily drink. (Source: Jinling Evening News)
