Spring is the best season of the year for children to increase their intelligence.
A world health organization study also confirmed that there is a significant seasonality in children's growth and development, with spring (March-May) growing the fastest and height growing 2-2.5 times faster than other seasons.
How to help children seize the golden time of spring to grow taller? What's the trick to growing taller? We have sorted out some tips to help children grow tall, do these points well, and the baby will no longer worry about growing tall.
If you want your child to grow taller, you must first avoid these misunderstandings
Parents are tall, children must be tall?
Some parents think that if they are tall, their children will definitely grow taller. However, this wrong understanding can easily lead to children missing the critical period of growing tall, and eventually becoming "short".
A doctor has said of such a patient before:
There is a pair of parents: the mother is 1.60 meters tall, the father is 1.75 meters tall, they have a pair of twins, the eldest son is 16 years old, the height of 1.80 meters. Therefore, in their consciousness, the younger son will not be short enough. But the truth is that the younger son is less than 1.70 meters tall, and he has only grown 1 centimeter in half a year.
Although height has a greater genetic probability, acquired effort is an important factor in determining the final height. Congenital deficiency, the day after tomorrow to make up, even if the parents are short, timely intervention, give full play to the child's acquired growth potential, but also can grow into a tall child.
Want to grow taller, more calcium supplementation?
The main function of calcium is to strengthen bones and increase bone density. Excessive calcium intake can easily lead to adverse reactions such as urinary stones and constipation, which not only bring pain to children, but also may lead to early closure of children's epiphyseals, affecting the growth of height.
If you want to grow taller, you have to eat more?
Some children have a better appetite and a large amount of food, and parents may feel that their children are growing up and let them eat and drink. In fact, the various organs of the child's body have not yet matured, eating too much will cause a great burden on the spleen and stomach, causing indigestion, difficulty in defecation and other problems, hurting the spleen and stomach, the normal operation of other organs of the body will also be affected, there may be a child to eat a lot of food, but the phenomenon of not growing tall.
Hit growth hormone and take heightening drugs
In the health food function announced by the State Food and Drug Administration (CFDA), there is no "grow tall" item, so don't pay the IQ tax anymore!
All kinds of "heightening drugs", supplements, health care products, especially oral liquids that advertise can grow tall, most of them add hormones, which can easily induce precocious puberty in children, resulting in early closure of the bone scale line, but it is easy for children to grow tall!
So, what is the right way to grow tall? Do a good job in these points, it is difficult to think of growing tall!
Make sure your child gets enough sleep
Sleep is of great significance in the growth and development of children.
Growth hormone is important for growing taller, and it generally spikes in secretion during deep sleep, 3 times more secreted than when awake!
There are two peaks of growth hormone secretion: one is from 10 pm to 2 am, and the other is from 5 am to 7 am, and both need to be in a state of deep sleep.
Therefore, it is best for children to fall asleep around 9 pm and enter a deep sleep state after 1 hour, so as to secrete more growth hormone.
More important than sleeping early and sleeping more is to help children develop a stable sleep pattern. Not only can the body secrete more growth hormone, but also make the child less sick, which is conducive to growing tall!
Keep your child in a good mood
In addition to the influence of sleep and exercise, the secretion of growth hormone is also closely related to the child's mood! When your child is depressed, the level of growth hormone secretion also decreases.
If your child is often in an environment of criticism, blame, and parental quarrels, the mood is depressed and depressed, and the pressure for a long time will cause the secretion of the child's growth hormones to be disturbed, and the height is often not high.
Therefore, parents should create a relaxed and loving family environment for their children to grow up happily.
Science movement
Athletes, NBA stars are very enviable in their tall stature. Indeed, sports such as touching heights, jumping, jumping rope, and basketball can effectively stretch children's bones and muscles, promote the coordination of the nervous system and skeletal muscles, and are conducive to growth and development.
Studies have shown that the body's growth hormone secretion will increase significantly after exercise, and children who often participate in sports are about 4cm higher than children who do not participate in sports. Exercise chooses an outdoor venue, let plenty of sunlight bathe the child's skin, help the formation of vitamin D in the body, facilitate the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, and promote bone growth.
Therefore, when the weather is good, don't "stuff" your child at home, and increase outdoor activities.
Outdoor exercise of 30 minutes to 2 hours a day can not only make children grow faster, but also enhance learning ability, improve learning efficiency, and do more with less.
