Patient's question:
The child of my sister's family has been diagnosed with intellectual disability. The 15-year-old child has the mental capacity of an 8-year-old. Can people with intellectual disabilities eat fish?Doctor's answer:
People with intellectual disabilities can eat fish. In the above situation, fish can digest high-quality protein, vitamins, and nutrients, which is also beneficial for regulating the body. If someone has intellectual disabilities, they can consume an adequate amount of fish. In cases of intellectual disabilities, it is advisable to reduce the intake of stimulating foods, frozen drinks, and spicy foods, while maintaining regular three-meal-a-day eating habits and appropriate physical activity. Intellectual disabilities can be very harmful to children. Once a mother notices symptoms in her child, she should immediately take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis. At the same time, she should pay close attention to the child's care needs. It is recommended to maintain a balanced diet to help the body digest nutrients in daily life. It is hoped that the child can receive professional treatment to aid in recovery!
