Question
Dear doctor, my son is currently in third grade and is eight and a half years old. Over the past two or three months, he has been complaining of headaches and dizziness, feeling as if there is an ultrasound interference in his head. He also says he feels extremely weak, especially when doing homework. Doctor, what could be causing this condition?
Answer
Pay attention to providing a balanced diet with adequate nutrition to improve his physical condition. Other issues won’t be as severe. Avoid taking medication randomly. The human body requires the seven essential nutrients: water, protein, fat, carbohydrates, trace elements, vitamins, and dietary fiber. Nutritionists’ suggestions of “comprehensive nutrition, reasonable proportions, and balanced diet” and “a handful of vegetables and beans, an egg with some meat, and enough grains” well reflect the idea of dietary balance. As long as we seriously achieve dietary balance, maintaining good health will become much easier.
