In fact, if you want your child to grow taller, in addition to nutrition to keep up, adequate sleep, weight is not too fat are very important things.
How tall are children of each age to reach the target? Today, the teacher will introduce the children's height and weight standard table for everyone, come and compare, and see if your child has reached the standard?
Factors that affect your child's height
●Congenital genetic factors
It is directly related to the height of the parents, and it is not excluded that it is inherited from generation to generation.
●Acquired genetic factors
In addition to nutrition, adequate sleep and proper exercise are also important, and acquired factors are also quite important.
Paying attention to children's nutrition is good, if the child eats too much and grows too fat, it is not good, fat children are easy to be teased by others when playing with small partners and at school, and children who are too short and thin are more likely to be bullied.
What is the height and weight of children of each age to reach the standard, parents take a serious look!

Stages of growth and development
▊ Basic stage——— Preschool
The preschool period (4 to 6 years old) is an important period for children's growth and development, and it is also the basic stage for children to grow taller. Calcium supplementation around the age of 6 is very important for children's future growth, at this time, human bones are in the reserve period, and the amount of calcium required for bone development is 800 mg per day.
Children of this age may have a serious shortage of partial eating, anorexia, and calcium intake, which affects the calcium reserves in the bones, which will directly lead to the child's short stature and reduced height increase during development. According to the 2014 National Nutrition Survey, the dietary calcium intake of mainland residents only reached about 40% of the recommended intake, so children at this stage need calcium supplementation.
▊ Sudden increase stage——— School age
10 to 16 years old is the development period of children, the size of the child is like a mushroom after the rain, "whizzing" straight up. The study found that at this stage, for every additional 30,000 mg of calcium absorbed by children, the height can be more than 1 cm, and the daily meals provided by the general family, the calcium content of the child's needs is less than 50%, far from meeting the needs of growth and development, so additional calcium supplementation is needed.
▊ Sprint stage ——— Adolescence
Males are 17 to 25 years old and females are 16 to 23 years old, which is the final sprint stage of growing tall. Studies have found that at this stage, adolescent epiphyseal cartilage has not really healed, and there is still a potential of 2 to 3 centimeters per year. At this time, supplementing with sufficient calcium can fully tap their growth potential and allow them to "go further".
▊ The three golden periods are interlocked
The child's three golden growth periods, like dominoes, one ring and one link, are a continuous dynamic process, and this stage is the basis for the growth of the next stage.
Children with insufficient calcium intake during the reserve period, if the diet is improper and malnourished, will affect the height growth of the development period; if the child in the development period cannot consume sufficient calcium, it is bound to affect the final sprint of growing tall. Therefore, at all stages of the child, it is necessary to ensure the full intake of calcium and not to take it lightly.
3 points to help improve your acquired height
▊ Sports:
Refers to reasonable exercise, like the amount of high-intensity exercise of athletes, but will increase the child's joint burden, inhibit the child's growth and development. Jump rope for improving the height of children the effect is more obvious, the operation is simple, parents can let the child jump once a day, ten minutes each time, adhere to it, can receive good results.
In addition, basketball, badminton, swimming, etc. are very good ways to exercise, and parents are best able to help their children develop good habits of loving sports.
▊ Sleep:
It is best to go to bed early, and the most vigorous time for growth hormone secretion is from 10 pm to 2 pm. Parents should not let their children sleep more than 10 o'clock, and primary school students are best to go to bed before 9:30 o'clock and ensure eight hours of sleep every day.
▊ Nutrition:
It must be balanced, if the child is partial and picky, it is easy to grow tall. Parents should supplement their children with enough protein, such as milk, meat, etc., zinc, calcium, iron and other trace elements should also pay attention to, lack of growth and development will also cause growth retardation, miss the best growth time, it will be difficult to catch up later.
Helps children grow taller with 5 dietary keys
▊ Balanced diet
The growth of the human body comes entirely from the quality of the food in the mouth, and if you want your child to grow tall, all kinds of nutrients must be balanced. The number of samples that are guaranteed to be eaten every day is 25 to 30 kinds, which is much richer than the nutrients obtained by eating only three or five things a day.
Recommended food
Vegetable and fruit salad:
Cucumbers, apples, bananas, onions, lettuce, pears, oranges, etc. cut into small pieces and place in a bowl, pour in the salad dressing.
Multigrain porridge:
Rice, black rice, red beans, dates, raisins, etc. are washed and added to water, cooked together for 1 hour.
Assorted Rice:
Put the oil in the pan, heat the oil, add eggs, peas, sweet corn kernels, ham, add rice and stir-fry together, and finally add cucumbers and chives and stir-fry a few times.
▊ Calcium should be sufficient
Calcium is the basis for bone growth. If the amount of physiological calcium required in the diet is not regularly ingested, and the amount of calcium in the blood and soft tissues is insufficient, calcium must be taken from the bone, and the lack of calcium in the bone will lead to osteoporosis, vertebrae deformation, and spinal curvature. Bones are not adequately nourished, of course, can not grow normally, let alone grow tall.
Foods with more calcium are: dairy products, eggs, fish, shellfish, tofu and beans, tahini, pumpkin seeds, etc. (vitamin D, vitamin C, lactose, etc. all contribute to the absorption and utilization of calcium).
▊ Protein is available every day
Children in the growth and development period have a much higher demand for protein than adults, and if the supply is insufficient, it will affect height growth. In addition, collagen and mucin are also organic components that make up bones.
Chicken, beef, fish and shrimp, eggs, milk, and tofu are all rich in protein.
▊ Iron, zinc and copper are indispensable
Although the human body's demand for them is not large, it is indispensable, and if they are missing, children will have various problems. Children who are deficient in zinc and have no appetite for anything will inevitably affect growth.
Iron is essential for the synthesis of hemoglobin, and copper is the catalyst for the synthesis of hemoglobin. If the supply of iron and copper in food is insufficient, it will inevitably hinder the synthesis of hemoglobin, and growth and development, intellectual development, immune function, etc. will be affected, and children may often get sick.
Iron-rich foods:
Animal liver and other offal, beef, lamb, egg yolks, fish, red beans, spinach.
Zinc-rich foods: oysters, animal livers.
Foods rich in copper: pork liver, pig blood, shrimp, crabs, shellfish.
▊ Fresh fruits and vegetables
Fresh fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and are essential for the human body. Vitamins A and C can make children have normal resistance.
Vegetables:
Cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, green peppers, shoots, tomatoes, green onions.
Fruits:
Oranges, bananas, pears, apples, grapes, peaches, apricots, watermelons.
Finally, give everyone a calculation formula for predicting the future height of your child according to your own height, and you will know whether your child should make up for it and whether it is time to exercise!
Adult lifetime height (cm) for boys = (father height + mother height + 13) / 2±7.5 (cm)
Adult lifetime height (cm) for girls = (father height + mother height -13) / 2±7.5 (cm)
