There is a folk saying that spring is the golden period of growth, and this sentence has some truth.
According to a WHO survey, children's growth rate varies throughout the year, with March to June being the fastest growing month, especially May, which is the fastest growing month of the year, averaging 7.3 mm.
The reason is that the human metabolism in the spring is vigorous, blood circulation is accelerated, respiratory function and digestive function are significantly accelerated, and the secretion of secretory hormones in the human body, especially growth hormone, will increase, creating golden conditions for growing tall.
"The plan of the year lies in the spring" means that the plan of the year should be considered and arranged in the spring, so that there can be a good harvest at the end of the year. Therefore, in order to make children grow faster and taller, we must grasp the spring season.
If you want to grow tall, doing these 4 things is more effective than calcium supplementation!
When it comes to growing tall, many parents will think of "calcium supplementation" for the first time. Calcium does play a very important role in bone growth, but blindly taking calcium to supplement is likely to have problems such as poor digestion, constipation, and stones. Moreover, some children themselves are not deficient in calcium, and if they are supplemented for a long time at this time, it will not only appear superfluous and wasteful, but also cause harm to the body.
What should really be done is these 4 things:
1. Sleep enough
Bones also need "sleep", Olympic champion Gu Ailing is 175cm tall, and her mother has publicly stated that Gu Ailing's daily sleep time must meet 10 hours.
Why is sleep so important? Because in the process of deep sleep, the secretion of growth hormone is more, which can reach 3 times that of the waking state, so it is very important to ensure that the daily sleep time is guaranteed.
The "Chinese Sleep Hygiene Guidelines for Children Aged 0-5" recommends that: sleep 13-18 hours a day from 0 to 3 months; sleep 12-16 hours a day from April to November; sleep 11-14 hours a day for 1-2-year-olds; and sleep 10-13 hours a day for 3-5 years old.
2. Exercise
A survey found that children who like sports for a long time are on average 4 to 8 cm taller than those who do not love sports, because appropriate exercise is conducive to promoting growth hormone secretion.
Children at each stage have their own way of exercising, the baby is crawling on the ground, the older one can shoot the ball, jump and jump, and the older one can jump rope, high jump, swim and so on.
What needs to be reminded here is that exercise should also pay attention to safety, only do projects that meet the age of children, do not do any dangerous projects, take moderate fatigue as the standard, and can not train for long-term negative pressure.
3. Diet
This does not need to be explained, food is an important substance to maintain human life, adequate nutrition, balanced nutrition, in order to make the body better develop.
Any supplement, is not as good as ingestion from food, if you want to supplement calcium, it is recommended to drink more milk, if you want to supplement vitamins, you can eat more fruits, if you want to supplement protein, you can eat more fish and shrimp meat.
It must be reminded here that the diversity of food is the best standard for scientific diet, and we must eat everything a little, rather than just eating expensive ingredients.
4. Mood
Good mood is the most effective "heightening drug", if the child is under the pressure of thought for a long time, such as being scolded by parents every day, or parents argue every day, the child is in a state of anxiety, fear, sadness and sadness for a long time, which will definitely affect the secretion of sleep and growth hormone, thereby further affecting height.
Therefore, parents have good feelings, have a tolerant heart for their children, accompany their children with heart and patience, and let their children have a happy mood every day, so that they can grow taller.
There are a few questions about children's "growing tall", parents must know!
1. Record the growth curve
It is recommended that parents record the growth curve of their children, so that they can intuitively see the growth and development of their children through the curve, whether it is "up" or "down". (You can refer to the following figure)
2, is it not to play growth hormone, the child can grow faster?
Parents often share on the Internet how long their children have been playing growth hormone, and then finally how many centimeters taller. As a result, there are some parents who do not know the truth, thinking that it is a kind of "special medicine" of growth hormone, and they want to mark their children.
In fact, only a small number of children with growth hormone deficiency can use "growth hormone" under the guidance of a doctor, if used indiscriminately, it is likely to cause the child to go to bed early, but it will affect the child's growth.
3. Do you want to test your child's bone age?
This is just a test, if you feel that your child is obviously shorter than the same age, you can take your child to a regular hospital, find a doctor to diagnose, if necessary, you can test, this is not too much of a problem.
Here we need to remind everyone, do not believe in what "heightening secret recipe", do not give children to eat high-nutrient food every day, scientific growth must be balanced, not extreme.
Finally, give everyone a formula for predicting your child's future height:
Genetic height for boys = (father height + mother height + 13) / 2±5 (cm)
Genetic height for girls = (father height + mother height -13) / 2±5 (cm)
This formula is only used as a reference, not as a standard judgment basis.
