Question
My child seems to be developing slower than children of the same age. What should I do?
Answer
It is recommended that you take your child to a regular hospital for a comprehensive examination to determine the cause and receive targeted treatment. At the same time, you can supplement your child with various trace elements such as zinc and selenium, which are hormone-free and have no side effects. Additionally, zinc supplementation can be achieved through food, such as red meat (beef, pork, liver) and seafood (oysters, etc.). Typically, slower development in children may be due to calcium deficiency or a lack of trace elements, so it is necessary to have blood tests at the hospital for diagnosis before targeted supplementation treatment can be administered. Please note to ensure your child does not have a picky eating habit, maintain a regular lifestyle, and engage in more physical exercise.
