小孩不長肉要健脾
小朋友沒有胃口吃飯，又或者吃飯但不長肉都教不少父母擔心，中醫理論認為小孩「脾常不足」，因為小孩的脾胃功能並未發育健全，又或飲食不節損傷脾胃功能，以致未能將食物的營養充分轉化和吸收，以致肺脾氣虛，便出現怎樣吃都不長肉的情況，伴隨症狀為面部浮腫、面色偏白、說話沒力氣、沒精打采、多汗、容易感冒、腹部經常脹滿、大便質軟或稀爛。
想改善不長肉的情況，便要從改善脾胃功能著手，在飲食上多加留意，避免進食生冷食物和屬性偏寒涼的食物（更加損傷脾胃），亦不宜進食補品或甜食（身體根本不吸收）；飲食宜清淡，適量進食粗糧例如小米、番薯、薯仔等食物；作息有規律，定時吃飯，進食不宜過飽；每日飲用紅米、白米及薏米煲的米水，強化脾胃功能；做適量帶氧運動，養好脾胃更能強身防病。
簡易健脾胃米水
材料：紅米2湯匙、白米半湯匙、生薏米半湯匙
做法：將材料洗淨，鍋內加入約800-1000毫升水，加入材料，以武火煮滾後調文火煮20-30分鐘。
*米水容易變壞，建議每天煲好，一天飲完，不要過夜。
**一歲以上已可飲用，最初可由每天飲一小杯約60毫升開始。
米水可以自己煲，亦可以購買即沖米水沖泡或紙包米水即開即飲。

Strengthen the spleen to promote growth in children
Children with poor appetite or those with slower growth can be worrisome. The theory of Chinese medicine state that children tend to have “spleen and stomach deficiency” because the child’s spleen and stomach functions are not fully developed. Poor eating habits can also harm the spleen and stomach. The nutrients of ingredients can not be fully absorbed and converted, leading to lung, spleen and qi deficiency and slower growth. Usual accompanying symptoms include bloated face, pale complexion, vocal weakness, fatigue, excessive sweating, prone to colds/flus, abdominal fullness and bloating and loose stool.
To improve the situation of slower growth, you should start with improving the functions of the spleen and stomach. Pay more attention to the child’s diet. Avoid eating cold/raw food and cold and cool natured ingredients (as they cause more damage to the spleen and stomach). It is also inappropriate to eat tonic foods or sweet foods (the body does not absorb it at all). Diet should be light with regular rest and meal times. Do not overeat. Daily rice water that is made with red rice, white rice and coix seeds can strengthen the spleen and stomach. Doing an appropriate amount of aerobic exercise can also strengthen the body to prevent diseases.
Simple healthy rice water
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons red rice, half tablespoon of white rice, half tablespoon of coix seeds
Preparation: Rinse all ingredients thoroughly. Combine all ingredients with 800-1000ml of water and cook on high heat until boiling. Turn to low heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes.
*Rice water should be made fresh daily and should not be stored overnight as it may spoil easily.
**It is suitable for children 1 year old or above. Start by having 60ml of rice water per day.
You can boil rice water yourself or purchase rice water powder to brew or paper pack rice water to drink.
