Question
Loves to bite their nails, not very focused during class.
Answer
A child biting their nails is not necessarily due to a zinc deficiency; it could be a psychological abnormal response or a habit. It is suggested to often explain to the child the disadvantages of nail-biting, and it will gradually be corrected. For zinc supplementation, protein zinc can be taken orally, and it’s also advisable to consume more vegetables, fruits, and legumes in daily meals.
