Question

How to treat lead overexposure in a 7-month-old infant?

Answer

Lead overexposure may increase the risk of developing ADHD. To reduce lead intake, avoid eating lead-containing foods such as popcorn and potato chips, and stay away from lead-containing environments. At the same time, consume a diet rich in vitamin C, calcium, iron, and zinc, as well as foods high in pectin like oranges, carrots, apples, and bananas. Additionally, maintain good hygiene habits such as frequent hand washing, reducing outdoor activities near roads, avoiding swallowing colored toys or pencils, and minimizing contact with paint products.
