When a child has diarrhea, it is essential for the diet to be light and easy to digest. If the child is breastfed, the mother's diet should also be light and easy to digest. If the child is fed with cow's milk, consider temporarily switching to a special formula for diarrhea. When introducing solid foods, provide items that are easy to digest, such as thin porridge, noodles, or rice mush. Mangoes, being tropical fruits, tend to be cooling and should be avoided during diarrhea. Mangoes are rich in proteins and can also trigger allergies in some babies. Therefore, children who are allergic should not eat mangoes. Wait until the diarrhea has resolved before considering introducing mangoes.
