It is often seen that in homes small children are given crunchy, chocolate, namkeen and biscuits to eat spicy food. But do you know that it can be quite harmful for your children? Your small carelessness may not become a big problem for the children. Let us know what pediatricians say about this.

Small carelessness can become a big problem

Talking to Local 18, Dr. Sumant Gupta, pediatrician of Kesari Raj Hospital, says that nowadays the problem of stomach ache is increasing in small children. The main reason for this is that people do not take high-fibre diet. The consumption of green vegetables and fruits has been greatly reduced. Apart from this, children are consuming more things like chips, crisps, toffee and momos.

The flour used in these foods is often of poor quality. Since all these things are made of flour, they get stuck in the intestines. This reduces the appetite of children and increases the chances of constipation, due to which children start complaining of stomach ache.

Excessive consumption of junk food is harmful for children

To avoid this, children should develop the habit of drinking more and more water and increase the intake of green vegetables. Also, they should be kept away from things like chips, toffee, kurkure and momos.

Their excessive consumption gradually increases the problem of stomach ache and can cause many serious diseases. The main reason for this is excessive consumption of junk food and foods made from refined flour. Such food items sold in open places are also harmful for children. Flour can stick to the stomach of children, which increases the chances of intestinal worms and this problem can later cause severe pain and other problems.

There were holes in the intestine due to eating momos.

Dr. Sumant Gupta tells that recently a patient came who had consumed excess momos. Due to this, there were holes in his intestines at many places and worms had also entered his brain, due to which his condition became very serious. If he had not been treated on time, he could have died.

Therefore, if you have small children in your house and they are eating too many things like crisps, biscuits, chocolates and momos, then be careful. Your small carelessness may not become a big problem for the children.
