In the selection of dampness ingredients, children with phlegm and dampness should try to avoid cold foods such as kelp, mung beans, winter melon, and barley. 

You can use some flat ingredients, such as seeds, poria cocos, red adzuki beans, sulforaphane seeds, etc. 

【Sulforaphane porridge】

Sulforaphane is an ingredient with the same origin as medicine and food. Sulforaphane is flat in nature, pungent and sweet in taste, enters the spleen, stomach and lung meridians, and has the effect of dispelling dampness and phlegm, eliminating accumulation and food.

Sulforaphane seed porridge can be eaten 1-3 times a week when the child has food accumulation, phlegm and dampness.

【Poria red bean porridge】

 Poria cocos and red adzuki bean are one of the common ingredients for strengthening the spleen and dispelling dampness, and both are flat. 

Poria red bean porridge is suitable for most children, and it can be eaten about 2 times a week.

2. Exercise appropriately

Moreover, exercise can also consume food in the body and reduce the burden on the spleen and stomach, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. 

To regulate the child's physique, relying on a single method, diet or massage, although it also has a certain effect.

However, if the child's height has fallen behind a lot, or the spleen deficiency and accumulation of heat and dampness in the food are more serious, you can use a variety of methods to regulate and help the child improve faster!
