Question
Recently, I have observed that children are in poor mental condition, and their height growth is slow. What diseases could this situation be caused by?
Answer
It is not uncommon for children to experience short stature and slow growth during their growth and development phase, and parents should not be overly worried. To promote healthy growth, it is recommended to increase the intake of foods rich in nutrients such as protein, calcium, and vitamin D in their diet, such as eggs, dairy products, soybeans, and their products, green vegetables, etc. In addition to paying attention to the rate of growth, it is also important to focus on the daily diet of the child and encourage them to maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physique and accelerate recovery. Moreover, maintaining a good attitude and mood is very helpful for the recovery from diseases.
