A 10-year-old child who currently can't remember anything—whose memory isn't even as good as mine. What should I do about a 10-year-old's poor memory?

Dr. Guan Yanlei
Children with poor memory at the age of 10 may require treatment through dietary adjustments, medication, and other methods. Under a doctor's guidance, ten-year-old children can undergo trace element testing and supplement deficient nutrients based on the results—for example, deficiencies in zinc, vitamin A, or vitamin B can be addressed by taking oral zinc gluconate chewable tablets, vitamin A soft capsules, or compound vitamin B tablets. Additionally, snacks for 10-year-old children can be replaced with nutrient-rich foods such as strawberries, apples, spinach, bananas, and tomatoes.
