Childhood diarrhea is a manifestation of acute gastroenteritis, and enteritis can lead to decreased digestive function. Therefore, the diet must consist of light and easily digestible foods. For infants fed with milk, diarrhea-specific formula can be given, and those who are breastfed can continue with breastfeeding. However, the mother's diet must also be light and easy to digest. Eggs are rich in nutrients such as proteins, phospholipids, and trace elements, and are relatively hard to digest. Therefore, it is not suitable to eat eggs during diarrhea, as consuming eggs will increase the burden on the intestines, thereby hindering recovery from the condition.
