Reasons for low intelligence of babies

Breast milk: Breast milk contains various active substances that promote children's intellectual development, especially taurine, which has a significant impact on intellectual development, and is up to 10 times higher than cow's milk. According to surveys, children who grow up on breast milk have an intelligence quotient about 3-10 points higher than those who grow up on milk substitutes.
3. Diet: Children who eat too much meat or are gluttonous may have reduced intelligence. Children who skip breakfast may have an impact on their intelligence, as the protein, sugar, vitamins, and trace elements consumed during breakfast are important components for brain health.
4. Obesity: Children who weigh 20% more than normal will have lower levels of visual, auditory, and knowledge acquisition abilities. This is because excessive fat in obese children entering the brain can hinder the development of nerve cells and the proliferation of nerve fibers.
