According to Ayurveda, the diarrhea in children is managed by making simple changes in diet and lifestyle and use of certain herbs that will help improve the digestive fire.
If the child is breast feeding, the mother ought to take care to avoid conflicting foods (viruddha ahara) and lifestyle (vihaar).
The child can be fed with a nourishing leh (herb mix) which is prepared by using false black pepper (vidanga), salt, millet (kodo) with oil/ghee. It is then mixed with honey to improve the taste.
Care should be taken to preserve energy and hydration.
