Children with constipation may become "dull"? Research results show that children with constipation often have poor memory and poor thinking ability.
If feces accumulate in the intestinal tract for a long time, they will ferment again and produce a large number of toxic substances. If they cannot be excreted in time, they may have adverse effects on the human nervous system. It can cause drowsiness, bad breath, dry tongue, headache, abdominal distension, cardiovascular, liver and kidney diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and even cancer. For children, sedentary stool can reduce brain function and affect children's intellectual development.
1、 Slow response to chronic constipation
Experts point out that children with constipation will become 'dull'. In his research, he found that children aged 2-6 with chronic constipation are not focused, lack of patience, sleepy, like crying, slow to respond to changes in the outside world, do not like to talk, do not like to make friends. However, within a few days after their defecation was unobstructed by drug treatment, their mood improved significantly and their reactions to "dullness" were alleviated. However, most of these children are soon constipated and return to the original kind of stupidity. He believes that children with frequent constipation will feel abdominal distension and discomfort, but because they can't express their discomfort, they can't attract the attention of their parents. Their attention is too much focused on constipation and discomfort, so they will be indifferent to the outside world and 'dull'.
Researchers believe that the cause of constipation in children is the obvious changes in diet and life. Those who do not accept breast-feeding, most of the diet is milk, sugar based, and did not pay attention to add beneficial defecation complementary food, often produce constipation in infancy. To early childhood, if the market fine soft food for children's staple food, constipation is more serious.
