The Little One Always Wants to Eat Eggs Every Day, Can They? The Doctor Provides an Explanation

Dream - Chicken eggs and quail eggs are excellent sources of animal protein for children to consume. Their nutritional content is very high, they taste delicious, they are affordable, and children find them very easy to consume.

Eggs are also very easy to be incorporated into various menus, even children can consume them directly without rice or other additions.

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "The soft texture and savory taste make eggs very popular among children. Whether it's scrambled eggs, omelette, fried eggs, or mixed with rice and other ingredients. Some children really like eggs, to the point of requesting this menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Many parents worry if their children eat eggs every day. One of the concerns is that they might develop boils."

Facing a child who always wants to eat eggs can indeed confuse and worry parents. So, is it safe if a child eats eggs every day?

Doctor Tania Paramita, a pediatric specialist, provides an explanation. According to her, children are allowed to eat eggs every day, but there are three conditions.

"Make sure of the following three things first, the first one is to make sure that the child is not allergic to eggs," said Dr. Tania. Some children do have an allergy to eggs. Usually, specific symptoms appear."

Like hives, it can also swell on the lips or eyelids. Children also complain of itchy eyes, coughing. If the allergy is severe, shortness of breath and digestive disorders may also occur. The second requirement is that the eggs given to children must be cooked thoroughly. "Must be cooked thoroughly and perfectly, not half-cooked, can be boiled but until cooked, why? To prevent the occurrence of salmonella bacterial infections," said Dr. Tania.

The third requirement that also needs to be remembered according to Dr. Tania is to know the distribution of animal proportions. Make sure the child gets an optimal intake of animal protein with the appropriate portion.

"If animal protein consumed is only eggs, then for children under one year old, specifically 6 to 12 months, the daily egg consumption should be 1-2 eggs," she said. "As for children over 1 year old who only eat eggs and refuse other foods, the daily egg consumption is allowed to be 2-3 eggs." "If eggs are combined with other animal proteins, the gram of other animal protein can be added," Dr. Tania advised. Source: IG @dr.taniaparamita
