My son has a stomache ache he may be constipated,apple juice good?

Question

He is complaining of a stomache ache. Is this constipation? and he is also a picky eater...What are the best foods to give him?

Answer 1

Fresh fruits (especially bananas, figs and apples), raw honey, flax seed, and oat bran.

You can also try psyllium husk supplements.

Apple juice is not the best choice because of the sugar and/or corn syrup it contains.. even 100% apple juice isn't the best choice because it lacks fiber.

Answer 2

BRAT diet is for diarrhea

Most dietary treatments for constipation are natural, including:

increasing the amount of fiber in his diet

increasing the amount of bran in his diet

decreasing constipating foods, like whole cow's milk, bananas, cheese, cooked carrots, and other foods that are high in fat

It can also help to increase the amount of fluids he is drinking, especially apple juice.

High Fiber Foods

Since the amount of fiber is listed on food labels, it can be easy to choose high fiber foods. Foods that are a good source of fiber have at least 2.5g of fiber per serving. These include many grain products, fruits, and vegetables.

Good examples of high fiber foods include:

raw vegetables

unpeeled fruits, like apples and pears

vegetable soup

popcorn

whole grain cereals

whole grain breads and pastas

beans

oranges

prunes and raisins

baked potato with the skin on

bran cereals, muffins, cookies, and bran supplements that your child could drink with water or juice

Other natural ways to relieve constipation including taking a supplement with psyllium, like Metamucil, exercising regularly, and having a daily routine of trying to have a bowel movement.

Answer 3

Try a clockwise massage on his abdomen to help promote the digestive cycle. I am a nanny and this always works for me.
