Question
What causes children to develop ADHD?
Answer
Children with ADHD may be affected by the following factors: maternal thyroid enlargement, anemia, colds, nephritis, and other diseases during pregnancy; abnormal conditions during childbirth; or trauma or infection to the nervous system within the first or second year of birth. These factors could all be contributing causes to a child developing ADHD. Parents are very important to children, as they always want to provide them with high-calorie supplements and high-protein foods. However, excessive intake of food may cause discomfort and is detrimental to children, as additives and preservatives may have negative effects on their health. To ensure the child’s health, it is recommended to control diet reasonably and avoid excessive intake of unnecessary additives and preservatives. I hope this answer is helpful to you.
