Patient's question:
What is beneficial for children with cerebral palsy? When my nephew was about one year old, he noticed that children had cerebral palsy. My brother also took him to many hospitals, but there were no good treatment methods there. Now he is receiving rehabilitation treatment at the rehabilitation center here. I want to know if there are any foods that are beneficial for cerebral palsy. I can prepare more food for the child with cerebral palsy in daily life.Doctor's answer:
Cerebral palsy generally allows for the consumption of some mild-natured foods, such as glutinous rice, corn, green beans, cabbage, quail, quail eggs, pork, and milk, which can both replenish qi and nourish yin; or a variety of foods that can replenish qi. Foods that balance both yin and yang, such as Chinese yam and honey, can replenish the qi of the spleen and lungs. Goji berries can not only nourish the kidneys and yin but also nourish the kidneys and yang. Foods should be easy to digest and absorb, nutritious, and high in protein. Protein is the foundation of intellectual activity and is closely related to brain memory and thinking.
