Question

A 6-year-old boy has recently noticed that the black parts of his hair are gradually turning yellow, and the yellow hair is scattered rather than concentrated. What could be the cause of this?

Answer

This condition may be due to a deficiency of vitamins and zinc in the child’s body. It is recommended that parents actively supplement their child’s nutrition, including high-quality proteins and high-protein foods such as milk, lean meat, fish, shrimp, seafood, and eggs. At the same time, encourage the child to eat more vegetables and fruits to provide sufficient vitamins and trace elements to meet the nutritional needs for hair growth. Additionally, supplementing with a certain amount of zinc is beneficial for hair growth. It is suggested to bring the child to a hospital for a check-up to receive more professional diagnoses and advice.
