What kind of assistance is needed:
What methods can help her grow taller and improve her intelligence?
Doctor's answer:
Balanced nutrition, especially for digesting certain nutrients. Never skip meals, and definitely avoid extreme dieting. Proteins, calcium, and vitamins are particularly important to digest. Fish, shrimp, lean meat, poultry eggs, peanuts, and soy products all contain high-quality proteins and should be consumed in moderation. Milk, dried shrimp, soy products, ribs, bone broth, kelp, and laver are rich in calcium and phosphorus. Additionally, it's essential to get plenty of sunlight to help with calcium absorption. Eat more vegetables and fruits to supplement vitamins.
