Read our good advice of traditional medicine from motion sickness in the transport of a child, and, perhaps, they will help you a lot.
If you do not take measures, there may be vomiting, and even a fainting condition. Some parents are sure that with sensitive children it is better to go on a trip on an empty stomach, believing that this way you can avoid vomiting. This is mistake. On the hungry stomach, the state of motion sickness, on the contrary, will come sooner. But from the abundant or fatty food before the road should be abstained, it also promotes motion sickness, especially nausea and vomiting.
Breakfast "on the path" is a small portion of any gruel, a loose steam omelet or fruit curd, as well as tea with mint.It can also be given a meat dish, but it is lean and without roasting .The ideal side dish is a mashed potatoes from a baked apple. a very useful combination easily "fits" in the stomach and has a beneficial effect on digestion.
The best way to avoid motion sickness is to put the baby to sleep. If this does not succeed, try to keep the kid looking not at the roadside, but on far-away objects. Try to sing quietly together with the child - many help it. Sitting must necessarily face in the course of movement, even on the train. It is useful to take a lemon, cut into thin slices and sprinkled with sugar powder: let the child eat or drink water with the addition of lemon juice. Reduces discomfort and tea with mint. The usual validity can also alleviate the condition, which is always in the first aid kit of the driver.
On a rest
First of all, avoid any snacks in random places. In good hotels, baby food is organized, in respectable restaurants there are always suitable dishes for children with a minimum amount of salt. But in ordinary low-cost cafes there can be sharp and very salty dishes, especially sauces. Try them first yourself. For the baby, sauces such as dairy (bechamel), mint English, apple English are suitable.
Fruits and berries
Going on holiday to the south, parents dream to feed the child with fruits and berries, as they say, straight from the twig. These fruits are vitamin, sweet and fragrant. But here you need to be careful.
In hotels and good restaurants, fruits and dishes from them can be given to children without fear. Bought in the markets of fruits, vegetables and berries should be carefully washed with a brush in the warm flowing water, and then rinse with boiled water, acidified with vinegar. It is even more reliable to wipe the surface of the washed and dried fruit with a thin slice of lemon. Lemon juice is destructive for the causative agents of intestinal infections and acts instantly.
If the washed fruit kept for more than an hour in an open vase, it is better to wash them again and grease with lemon juice.
When choosing fruits, choose those from which you can peel. As a rule, exotic fruits can not eat seeds, hard shell and internal lintels. Peel better off and take off the overseas fruit, and with nashensky, grown in the middle band.
In gardens and orchards, even personal ones, pesticides are sometimes treated. These are pesticides that are used to protect plants from pests, weeds and diseases, as well as to stimulate the development of fruits. These substances with varying degrees of toxicity accumulate in the skin and on the surface of the fruit, penetrating into the flesh of the fruit only in negligible quantities. Before eating fruits, the peel from them is best removed, before rinsing them abundantly with water and drying them.
In many countries apples before laying for storage are covered with a layer of wax with the addition of fungicides (antifungal pesticides). This allows a long time to preserve the color of the fruit and their freshness. Sometimes for the same purpose they are fumigated with sulfur dioxide. It is better not to risk and after carefully washing the apples to cut off the skin.
Do not buy fruit with specks-wormholes. These tiny lesions indicate the presence of nitrates in the fetus. In this case, cutting the damaged space will not change anything. The presence of nitrates is also evidenced by a thick light coating on the grapes and too thick peel from oranges and lemons.
In consolation, it must be said that in fruit growing on trees, exceeding the dose of nitrates is extremely rare. Another thing - melons and gourds. While treating your child with watermelon or melons, cut out a piece from the middle. Nitrates are located near the very crusts and close to them, where the pulp is whitish. Do not give children early watermelons, the risk of exceeding the dose of nitrates in them is greater. Do not use immature watermelons and melons for jam, and crusts of citrus - for making candied fruits.
Harmful "yummy"
On vacation, we often relax control over the nutrition of your baby. I want my beloved to enjoy not only the sun, fresh air and bathing, but also enjoyed various kinds of delicacies.
The child, seeing the rest, deliciously crunching a crust of fried potatoes, asks for "it" for himself. "Well, what, in fact, happens if you buy him a bag or two?" - sometimes adults argue. "" Is it really harmful? "Well, "Empty" calories, well, overheated fats ... After all, not every day a child "eats"!
Not so long ago in the press appeared the rating of the most unhealthy finished products, compiled by Johnny Bowden. The first in the list of Bowden is the French fries, which is served almost in all fast food restaurants. Followed by sweet glazed donuts, sweet fizzy drinks ... In the middle of the list - cookies with a low fat content. In it in the role of fat substitutes are synthetic components that adversely affect the baby's liver.
In food, this toxic substance can get into and out of the environment, in which it penetrates in violation of treatment systems at chemical plants.
But the main thing is to exclude acrylamide from entering the children's body through food, especially as it is in our hands.
All in your hands
Nutrition of children only by healthy natural products, especially during summer holidays, requires not only attention and care from parents, but also the ability to bypass temptations. It is very useful to educate the children with the consistency and calm attitude to delicacies. It will be appropriate to recall the sad joke of Mark Twain: "The only way to maintain health is that you do not want to, drink something that you do not like, and do things that you do not like." Alas, this joke contains nothing of truth, in it everything is the truth, and we, in turn, hope that thanks to our advice of traditional medicine from rocking in the transport of a child, you have discovered a lot for yourself.
