Question

What should I do if my child is diagnosed with tic disorder? The main symptom is vocal tics, similar to hiccups. In severe cases, they can last for 10 minutes or more.

Answer

The main cause of tic disorder is often attributed to high levels of lead in a child’s body. Timely supplementation with zinc and selenium can help in the excretion of lead. Trace elements like zinc and selenium can counteract heavy metals. By incorporating foods rich in zinc and selenium into the diet, such as fish, lean meat, peanuts, sesame seeds, dairy products, mushrooms, eggs, garlic, etc., one can effectively supplement zinc and excrete lead, thereby treating pediatric hyperactivity disorder.
