Traditional Chinese medicine theory holds that children, lacking innate vitality and insufficient nourishment in their later years, may experience loss of mental control, leading to symptoms such as restlessness, unsettled spirit, weak willpower, and unsteady determination. This can result in scattered thoughts, excessive talking and movement, and involuntary spasms in various parts of the body. Clinically, methods such as nourishing the heart and calming the spirit, moistening yin and reducing fire, calming the liver and extinguishing wind, and resolving phlegm and awakening the mind are commonly used. These approaches have significantly improved cerebral blood circulation, promoted the release of biochemical substances like enkephalins, increased the content of nucleic acids in the brain, thereby enhancing brain function. They have achieved breakthrough progress in the treatment of conditions such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), tics, epilepsy, intellectual disability, and mental disorders.
