The regulation methods for children with excessive liver fire mainly include the following:
1. Dietary adjustment: Encourage children to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as celery, pears, apples, etc., reduce the intake of meat, fried and spicy foods, and avoid carbonated beverages. Maintaining a bland diet helps alleviate symptoms of excessive liver fire.
3. Increase water intake: Ensuring adequate hydration for children helps eliminate toxins and internal heat from the body and improves liver function.
4. Regular作息: Ensure children have sufficient sleep and avoid overexertion to promote adequate rest for the liver.
5. Emotional regulation: Pay attention to children's emotional changes, avoid excessive stress or negative emotions, and maintain a happy mood.
If symptoms persist or worsen, it is recommended to seek timely medical attention for professional treatment.
