Sometimes I feel that the college entrance examination is not only a test for children, but also a test for parents.

Especially as a mother, looking at the countdown card, the chord in my heart is tighter than the candidates themselves.

What can I do? There was no way to help him do the questions, so the only thing I could do seemed to be to make fun of three meals a day.

I wish I could stuff all the best things in the world into that little lunch box.

But unfortunately, this heavy love can most easily become a burden on children inadvertently.

Don’t make up for it at this juncture

Really, listen to my advice.

First put away those high-end ingredients you have never seen before, such as sea cucumbers, abalone, imported steaks, etc.

There is a doctor named Wang Xian in the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. His statement is very practical, that is, children must not touch anything they have not eaten within these two days.

This is not an unfounded scary statement. The body will reject unfamiliar food, and the intestines and stomach are inherently sensitive. In addition, once a person becomes nervous, vomiting and diarrhea are not something to be taken lightly.

Big fish and big meat? Maybe good intentions lead to bad things

Many parents think that eating meat is to supplement nutrition. There is nothing wrong with the logic, but it is time to score.

I usually eat a bowl of braised pork and it’s fine. Eating during the two days of the college entrance examination may be a big deal.

Protein is digested slowly, especially at night. If you eat too much meat, your intestines and stomach will need to put in more energy and work overtime. Your child will toss and turn, making it difficult to fall asleep. The next day, he will enter the examination room with dark circles under his eyes. How distressing will you feel at this time?

Doctors working at Peking Union Medical College Hospital also said that foods containing a large amount of oil and excessively high fat will slow down gastric emptying. During the afternoon exam, the child had a full abdomen and felt sleepy, making it impossible to concentrate.

Be careful! That "halo carbon" feeling

Have you ever had this feeling? After eating a bowl of fried noodles at noon, you feel dizzy and want to fall asleep in the afternoon, and your head feels like a messy mess.

This is "halo carbon".

Refined carbohydrates, such as white rice, white noodles, and chocolate, cause blood sugar to rise quickly and drop it equally quickly. Blood sugar is like riding a roller coaster. Halfway through the exam, the child suddenly felt so sleepy that he could no longer hold a pen steadily.

Therefore, staple food must be paired with vegetables and protein, just like adding a "slow-release capsule" to fuel.

Those "refreshing" things may be a stumbling block in the exam room

If you don’t drink strong tea, coffee, or energy drinks on a regular basis, don’t try them these days.

After children drink caffeine, they will not only experience palpitation and trembling hands, which will aggravate their nervousness, but will also directly disrupt their sleep at night.

As for those health products that claim to "replenish the brain", don't bother. If there is such a magical word, no one needs to study anymore. The unknown ingredients in it may cause toxic side effects.

Breakfast is a "fuel station" and dinner is a "calming soup"

No matter how nervous you are, you still have to eat breakfast.

Don't even take a sip of porridge or eat an egg to fuel your brain. If you don't eat breakfast, your blood sugar will have difficulty keeping up, and every minute in the exam room will become a torment.

Don’t eat big fish or meat for dinner. Keep it light. Drink some millet porridge and eat something easy to digest.

The Liuzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital actually recommended a lily and lotus seed soup, claiming that it has a calming effect and can help children sleep more peacefully. I thought about it and thought I might give it a try.

If you really want to get lucky, you can eat noodles, but don’t drink soup.

Parents all want good luck, and eating noodles during the college entrance examination means success.

This can be done.

But Dr. Wang Xian is right. Noodles are edible, but they must be light-flavored. Don't make noodles that have a lot of fat and a strong spicy flavor. Just make noodles with a clear soup and a little water, add a few more pieces of braised beef, and a handful of green vegetables.

Nutrition is balanced and digestion is stable. This is a real success.

After all, what needs to be prepared most these days is not delicacies, but a normal mind.

When you calm down, your child will feel at ease.

What was stable was not just those few meals, but also the home that kept the lights on for him no matter what the outcome.
