Question
A 6-month-old baby cannot lift its head, can roll over, has normal appetite, and has no significant abnormalities. However, it sometimes trembles. Is it okay for a child with ADHD to eat a lot of fruit?
Answer
In daily diet, it is advisable to avoid excessive intake of fruits and other foods containing stimulating spices such as chili, fresh ginger, fresh garlic, alcohol, as well as apples, oranges, and tomatoes, as these foods contain high levels of methyl salicylate which may interfere with neural information transmission, thereby exacerbating the symptoms of ADHD. In addition, it is important to take the child to a professional medical institution for diagnosis and treatment to achieve effective control and improvement.
