In the spring, in the changing weather environment, diarrhea has become one of the most common diseases in babies, and almost every baby will experience it. In fact, this situation is related to the baby's special physiological structure, because the baby's gastrointestinal tract is not mature, relatively fragile, and the normal flora is not yet perfect, so it also increases the incidence of diarrhea in the baby.
Today, we will take a look at the common causes of baby diarrhea, and how to prevent baby diarrhea, parents come to learn together!
Causes of diarrhea in babies
(1) If the baby has severe diarrhea, accompanied by abdominal pain, bloody stools, fever, etc., it is often caused by viruses or bacteria (E. coli, Salmonella, etc.). Some of these infections can heal on their own, but some can be very severe. (2) In many areas where the baby is fed porridge and powder paste, too much carbohydrate will cause fermentation, which will easily cause the baby's digestive system to be disturbed, and finally lead to diarrhea.
The sugars in the dairy products that babies often eat are mainly lactose, and their digestion is based on lactose to digest enzymes, and many babies who lack this enzyme cannot digest lactose well. In addition, diarrhea in babies can lead to damage to intestinal mucosal cells, which reduces the baby's ability to secrete lactase, and can also cause "secondary lactose intolerance" .
Diarrhea can also occur when your baby is cold, overheated, mentally upset, overly nervous, or frightened.
How to prevent diarrhea in your baby
According to expert research, breast milk contains an immune substance called secretory IgA (SigA), which plays an important role in maintaining and strengthening local immunity in the digestive tract. That is to say, it can make the baby's digestive tract have a strong ability to resist the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms, so the use of breastfeeding can better ensure the sound function of the child's digestive tract, and it is not easy to have diarrhea disease and digestive disorders.
While providing the baby with the nutrition he needs to grow, how to make the baby's stomach healthier? I think Uberim, which my baby has been drinking, is a great choice. This milk powder adopts the Youbo bionic formula, which has a breakthrough in the development of a whole whey protein formula, the nutritional ratio is derived from the study of colostrum, the protein composition content is infinitely close to colostrum, and the ratio of whey protein and casein is as high as 9:1, so that the baby can receive breast milk-like intimate "care" anytime and anywhere, help immunity, intellectual development more comprehensive, and the intestines are healthier.
In addition, Uberimmu also meets the requirements of the new national standard, such as the new national standard requires that the carbohydrate content of lactose in the 2-stage formula powder should be greater than 90%, the lactose in the 3-stage formula powder should be greater than 50%, and the 100% lactose formula used by Uberimus is a 100% lactose formula, and the nutrition is very comprehensive!
In addition, the gastrointestinal tract of children is relatively weak, when its function is not yet perfect, breastfeeding or artificial feeding children should be more cautious when adding complementary foods, in addition to adding on time, they should also abide by the principle of "from less to more", and should avoid adding several foods at the same time to prevent diarrhea in babies due to improper feeding.
Finally, I would like to remind parents that in addition to the baby's diet, daily hygiene issues are also very worthy of attention, especially for artificially fed children, special attention should be paid to dietary hygiene and water sanitation, as well as the cleanliness and hygiene of the food preparation process. I believe that all babies will be able to stay away from diseases and grow up healthier under the careful care of parents!
