Answer
Hello: The treatment for cerebral palsy mainly focuses on rehabilitation training. According to the child’s training progress, surgical intervention should be performed at appropriate times to create favorable conditions for rehabilitation. In terms of diet, it is important to enhance nutrition and choose foods rich in protein, as protein is the foundation of intellectual activities and closely related to the brain’s memory and thinking. Milk, soy milk, eggs, yogurt, and meat are all rich in protein. In addition, the diet for cerebral palsy should include a variety of vitamins. Vitamin A can enhance the body’s resistance and promote brain development; the B-complex vitamins can improve various metabolic functions and increase appetite; Vitamin D aids in the absorption and utilization of calcium.
