5 elements that affect fetal intelligence

　　When the baby is in the mother's belly, the development of brain cells requires the supply of various nutrients. Lack of vitamins or minerals during the development of brain cells will produce adverse sequelae ； And certain trace elements are necessary for brain cell growth and brain function.

　　zinc

　　It has been confirmed that zinc deficiency in pregnant women will increase the incidence of fetal abnormalities.； In addition, the nutritional status of zinc in pregnant women is also related to fetus It is related to the growth status and will affect the growth, development and maturity of fetal brain cells. People who often eat white rice, beans and fiber-rich plant foods, but eat less animal foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and milk, are more likely to suffer from zinc deficiency. Foods rich in zinc include: yeast, cereals, liver, and sunflower seeds.

　　iron

　　Iron deficiency is the most common deficiency disease in the world. This year, studies have found that iron deficiency and nerve Function is related, this study is mainly due to hookworms that cause blood loss, causing abnormal behavior in school children, and affecting concentration and agility. In addition, the adverse effects of iron deficiency on behavior may reduce behavioral stability. Foods containing more iron include: cereals, stone fruits, green vegetables, and liver.

　　copper

　　When humans have abnormal copper metabolism in the body due to genetic diseases, it can damage the central nervous system. Copper deficiency occurs less commonly in humans, but has been associated with protein-caloric malnutrition. premature birth Children may be at risk of copper deficiency, which may impair the maturation of brain cells.

　　lead mercury

　　Lead and mercury are two toxic trace elements whose neurological effects are well known. The most famous case of mercury poisoning occurred in the Japanese seaside village of Minamata. disease , Pregnant women eating contaminated fish can cause cerebral palsy and microcephaly in newborns. female If exposed to large amounts of lead before pregnancy, lead can pass through the placenta during pregnancy and affect the fetus until birth. According to recent medical reports, the blood lead concentration of pregnant women should not exceed 10 micrograms/dl, otherwise it may cause miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth of the fetus. Uterus Ingrowth disorders, congenital malformations, mental retardation, and learning disabilities. >>>> Pregnant woman appears7Be careful with these symptoms

　　iodine

　　In early pregnancy, the fetus is completely dependent on the mother's supply of thyroid hormone. If the pregnant woman lacks iodine during the period of fetal brain cell division and development, it will seriously hinder the fetal brain cell maturity, causing mental retardation or motor nerve incoordination, and occasionally accompanied by cognitive impairment. Severe deficiency can cause dementia.
