Thanhnien.vn – One of the common diseases in infants is problems related to the digestive system. With an immature digestive system, children are susceptible to a number of problems such as diarrhea, constipation, flatulence, indigestion, etc., and that makes parents worried.

What is the difference between children’s digestive system and adult’s?

The digestive system is a system consisting of different organs, performing the function of digestion and absorption of essential nutrients for the body to provide energy for daily activities. Therefore, for children to develop healthily, it is important to care for them with a healthy digestive system.

Compared to adults, children’s intestines are relatively long, the intestinal mucosa has many wrinkles, microvilli and blood vessels, so children can easily absorb nutrients, leading to faster growth in weight and height. However, the connection between intestinal epithelial cells is loose, allowing bacteria to easily penetrate, causing digestive disorders in children.

For children, food is digested in the intestines thanks to the effects of enzymes in intestinal juice, pancreatic juice, and bile, but the levels of these enzymes are low, so children are susceptible to digestive disorders and malabsorption during illness. Most of the structures of the stomach develop and become more complete, almost similar to adults when children are over 2 years old. After age 7, a child’s digestive system is complete and almost similar to an adult’s in terms of anatomy and physiology, especially the intestinal microbiota.

How to bring a child’s healthy digestive system? 

A healthy digestive system is the basic premise for the best development of children. This not only ensures their good eating and good nutrients absorption to gain weight and grow tall, but also helps them increase resistance, grow healthily and stimulate brain development.

To have a healthy digestive system, children need to eat a nutritious diet that is easy to digest and absorb, and drink enough water. When processing, it is necessary to ensure hygiene, choose clean, fresh ingredients and process immediately. Feed your child each meal thoroughly, limit reheating food multiple times, and avoid foods that are difficult to digest.

Feeding your child any new food, you should start with a small amount and then gradually increase. Children should not be fed too many foods during the day, to avoid the child having allergies and making it difficult to determine which food is the cause. Children should not be fed seafood, whole grain foods, high in protein, starch, etc. too early as their digestive system may be overloaded and lead to disorders.

Providing additional probiotics to the child’s digestive system helps balance the intestinal microflora by changing the composition of intestinal bacteria or the metabolic activity of bacteria. Good bacteria crowd out bad bacteria in the gut, preventing bad bacteria from multiplying and causing infection or inflammation.

Postbiotics are a new type of probiotic, their effectiveness has been scientifically proven, especially in support for improvement of digestive disorders such as diarrhea.
