Patient's question:
The son doesn't answer much and sometimes falls while walking. He has low intelligence, and I want to ask the doctor if people with low intelligence can eat river snails.Doctor's answer:
Mental retardation can consume snails. Snails contain protein, calcium, and are nutritionally rich. The diet should provide easily digestible and nutritious foods, such as low-fat, high-vitamin, high-protein, and high-fiber foods. Eat more fish, walnuts, egg custard, tofu, fresh fruits, and vegetables, etc., to nourish the body and enhance immunity. The food should be warm, soft, and smooth. Avoid fried, extremely cold, greasy, spicy, and irritating foods. Avoid smoking and alcohol. Patients should face the harm of mental retardation and actively adopt treatment measures. Do not avoid seeking medical attention. If mental retardation does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to change the treatment plan in a timely manner.
