Will motor developmental delay affect intelligence?

Maybe many of our children are prone to motor development delay, and many children have not learned to walk within a reasonable time. Maybe many of our mothers are very anxious and don’t know what method to use for treatment. Many people don’t know whether motor development delay will affect intelligence. Let’s answer the question of whether motor development delay affects intelligence.

Delayed motor development affects intelligence. Zinc is known as the "source of intelligence" and is of course closely related to our intelligence. Zinc is a component and initiator of nearly 100 enzymes in the human body. It participates in the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids, thereby affecting cell division, growth and regeneration. It plays a very important role in promoting children's intellectual development. It has been proven that children who are too deficient in zinc often have poor intellectual development, while children with relatively high levels of zinc in their bodies have better intelligence and excellent academic performance.

Iron is a coenzyme for dozens of biological oxidases and is closely related to intellectual development. Children who lack iron have lower mental development index than normal children, which is mainly manifested in slow reaction, poor language ability and observation. In addition, iron plays a major role in the absorption of zinc, and iron deficiency will affect the body's absorption of zinc. Medical research has shown that among children with acquired intellectual disability, a considerable proportion of them suffer from iron and zinc deficiency.

The answer to the question "Does motor development retardation affect intelligence?" is no. Motor development retardation may have a certain impact on intelligence, but the impact is not significant. Our mothers need to use various external stimulation methods to help our children develop their intelligence, and we must also fully supplement our children with the various nutrients needed by the body.
