Question

How should children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) be treated? In school, these children often find it difficult to concentrate and may exhibit hyperactive behavior in class, even when teachers remind them, it is hard for them to correct this behavior. In such cases, what treatment measures should be taken?

Answer

The key to treating ADHD in children is psychological therapy. This includes the guidance and education of parents, teachers, and medical professionals to help children face learning with the right attitude, cultivate good living and learning habits, and develop self-control skills. Additionally, supplementing trace elements zinc and selenium in the diet is also part of the treatment, as they can combat heavy metals. It is recommended to consume more foods rich in zinc and selenium, such as fish, lean meat, peanuts, sesame seeds, dairy products, mushrooms, eggs, and garlic, which can help achieve effective supplementation of zinc and selenium.
