1, the reason why children should not eat scallops is because the sodium glutamate contained in scallops can be decomposed into glutamic acid and tyrosine, which is transformed into toxic and harmful substances under the action of intestinal bacteria, which will interfere with the normal metabolism of brain nerve cells, and children are in the golden stage of brain development, so it is not recommended to give them too much scallops. Moreover, children's own gastrointestinal function is relatively weak, and a large number of scallops will affect the motor and digestive function of the stomach, leading to food stagnation and difficulty in digestion and absorption.

2. In addition, the content of protein in scallops is high, and eating more may cause a rash. However, it is not absolutely impossible for children to eat scallops, but they should not eat them too often. It is enough to eat them once or twice a week. If they are children over one year old, they can add some scallops when cooking porridge to increase nutrition.
