Both boys and girls, parents expect their children to have a tall figure in the future. Genetically, more than 60% of height is genetically determined. So the old saying often says: "Daddy is one, mother is short and short", but is there a case of counterattack? Absolutely!
Flyer Jordan is 196cm tall, his father is only 173cm, his mother is only 168cm; Jeremy Lin, who is also a basketball star, is 190cm tall, and his parents are only 167cm tall.
To give another example, my son's cousin is 190cm tall, while his father is only 170cm and his mother is only 168cm. Relatives in the family are also of normal height and do not have particularly prominent genetic genes. So how can we help us to fight back with height? Let's start by clarifying the following questions:
Part 1
The "golden growth" phase of the child growing tall
The two golden periods in a child's life are: infancy and adolescence.
It is particularly worth noting that the infant period is the fastest stage of children's growth, and if you want to counterattack the height of your child, you must start from the infant period. From birth to adulthood, the growth rate of height is not uniform, and the influence of nutrition before the age of 2 far exceeds genetic factors.
Another golden age is adolescence. Puberty is an important stage in the growth and development of children, and children will have obvious secondary sexual characteristics and height spurts.
Girls are around 10-12 years old, boys are around 12-14 years old, and the height of children in this period is only slower than in infancy. Adolescent children generally gain about 10-20 cm taller. But the height growth during this period lasted only two or three years.
Part 2
Observe your child's growth and development
According to the results of children's physical development surveys, the Ministry of Health organized relevant experts to study and formulate the "Reference Standards for the Growth and Development of Children Under 7 Years of Age in China" for parents' reference.

Part 3
What factors are related to growing tall?
There are three positively correlated factors in a child's height: nutrition, sleep, and exercise.
#营养 #
Several nutrients that promote growth:
Minerals: calcium, phosphorus, zinc
Vitamins: VD, VA, K2
Among them, calcium and phosphorus provide the basic raw materials for children to grow tall, zinc promotes near-growth, VD promotes absorption, K2 promotes calcium osteogenesis, and VA increases gluten cell activity.
During the golden age of growth, it is important that the supply of protein and nutrients is sufficient. And these nutrients can be obtained by children in their daily diet. If you want to jump high, you must eat more foods with high calcium content, such as milk, tahini, shrimp skin, beans, etc. The daily diet should be as nutritious as possible, not picky eaters, not partial to food. My son's uncle, who is 190cm, was characterized by drinking milk as water when he was a child.
#睡眠 #
Children during the growth and development period must ensure adequate sleep time every day, the long one is because the body secretes growth hormone, and the two peak periods of growth hormone secretion in the human body are: 22:00-01:00 and 5:00-7:00 every day.
The harm of children's lack of sleep is really too great, especially late sleep, not only will affect the growth and development of children but also affect the brain memory, while long-term late sleep children's heart and lung function will also become worse.
#运动 #
Young children want to jump high, it is best to choose the sun to the sun exercise, although the sun can not directly supplement calcium, but can make the human body subcutaneous synthesis of vitamin D, help the absorption of calcium. Letting children bask in the sun in the spring is like letting plants "photosynthesize" in the sun, which is very helpful for children to grow taller.
In addition, it is recommended to choose stretching sports, such as jumping rope, high jumping, basketball, swimming, etc., and negative pressure exercises such as dumbbell weightlifting are not recommended.
Part 4
Pay attention to children's posture training
Parents should correct the bad posture of children during growth and development in time, pay attention to the healthy development of children's spine and bones, and pay attention to children's posture training. A good posture not only makes the child's image more outstanding and more confident, but also allows the child to increase visually by 2-3cm in an instant.
Four evening body stretching exercises suitable for young children are recommended, ten minutes a day, simple and good to stick to:
#小海豹 #
Put your hands on the ground and tilt your head as far back as possible
#小坦克 #
The seat is bent forward, with both hands trying to grasp the tiptoes
#小蝴蝶 #
The soles of the legs are together, the head is low, and the legs are pressed down
Special attention: Stretch before going to bed for young children, remind the baby not to hold his breath and breathe normally. Don't be too harsh on the standard and flexibility of the action, just have a sense of stretching; the time should not be too long, 10-15 minutes is the best. Moms, take the babies to practice
