Question

What are the symptoms of zinc deficiency in infants?

Answer

Zinc deficiency in infants may result in feelings of fatigue, difficulty sleeping at night, and palpitations. In severe cases, it may affect their physical health and daily activities. Doctors recommend eating a variety of vegetables and fruits, and taking zinc gluconate supplements to treat the condition, while also ensuring plenty of water intake. If diagnosed with zinc deficiency, nutritional support therapy should be initiated promptly, along with any other recommendations from the doctor. Parents should help their children develop good eating habits to avoid picky eating and selective eating.
