What to do if you have mild mental retardation?

Mild mental retardation can be treated with some later treatment and intervention training to help improve intellectual development. Especially as a parent, once you find that your child has similar symptoms, you must be vigilant or go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination. In life, insist on breastfeeding, and prepare a variety of fresh fruits, milk and soy products for your children.

(1) Breast milk. Breast milk is the best brain-boosting food. It can provide unsaturated fatty acids that are essential for brain development, especially linoleic acid, which is almost non-existent in cow's milk. Therefore, breastfeeding is an important nutritional guarantee for the child's brain development.

(2) Animal offal, lean meat , fish, etc. contain more unsaturated fatty acids and rich vitamins and minerals. Therefore, children can eat some animal brains, livers, lean meat, fish, etc. in moderation.

(3) Fruits. Apples, in particular, not only contain a variety of vitamins, inorganic salts and sugars, which are necessary nutrients for the brain, but also are rich in zinc. Zinc is closely related to enhancing children's memory. Therefore, eating fruits regularly not only helps children's physical growth and development, but also promotes their intellectual development.

(4) Beans and their products. It is rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins A, B, etc. In particular, it is high in protein and essential amino acids, with glutamate being the most abundant, and it is the material basis for brain activity. Therefore, it is beneficial for children's brain development if they often eat beans and their products.

(5)Hard-shell foods. Foods rich in lipids, such as walnuts, peanuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, pine nuts, etc., all contain phospholipids and cholesterol that are beneficial to the brain's thinking, memory, and intellectual activities. Therefore, you can let your children eat some hard-shelled foods in moderation. In addition, foods such as vegetables and seafood also help the development of children's brains.
