What is the cause of baby anorexia, and what are the specific reasons? There are several reasons for this.
1. Anorexia caused by zinc deficiency.
One of the components of the taste element in the saliva is zinc. When zinc is lacking, it will affect taste and appetite; zinc deficiency can affect the function of taste buds and decrease taste function; zinc deficiency can cause mucosal hyperplasia and incomplete keratosis, causing a large amount of shedding The epithelial cells block the pores of the taste buds, making it difficult for food to reach the taste buds, and the sense of taste becomes insensitive.
2. Improper feeding after birth causes digestive tract dysfunction.
In infancy, due to monotonous feeding, parents ignored the addition and supplementation of complementary foods. They used dairy products and starchy diets for a long time, resulting in a lack of fiber, vitamins, and trace elements, resulting in dry stools and flat tongue taste buds. , Dull taste, loss of appetite. As they grow older, they often feed their baby food such as rice and pickles. If things go on like this, the lack of nutrients such as zinc and essential amino acids, resulting in growth retardation and decreased resistance, is the most common clinical cause.
3. Inadequate parenting and improper eating.
Some parents want their babies to grow stronger. They usually have high protein, high sugar, and high-quality nutrients. They don’t know that their babies’ digestive function is limited and the gastrointestinal tract can’t bear the burden. As a result, the baby’s appetite is reduced, and some have malaria. Some have become fat, but have a poor physique. These parents don’t know the old saying: “Poor families have a way to raise children.” When the economic conditions are good, it is natural to feed their babies better, but scientific parenting should be emphasized. There is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine that “the precious flow is not the expensive stagnant”. Those high-grade foods are greasy in nature and eat too much. Not only can they not provide nutrition, but they accumulate internal injuries and lose their appetite. There are also parents who put the baby’s eating first and adopt the filling feeding method. Even if the baby can’t eat it, they still ask to take another bite. The result is self-defeating and vomiting; some babies usually snack constantly, even if they are not hungry. No appetite, and barely eating, over time, make the baby anorexia.
