After 40 years of growth and development in the outpatient clinic, parents often say that the child is too thin, how can I let the child eat more, my child eats a lot, but it just doesn't grow.
In fact, many parents have made a mistake, that is, they think that if their children eat too much and too well, they can grow taller, without considering the carrying capacity of the child's spleen and stomach.
Spleen deficiency is the physiological state of the child, a little more will accumulate food, and the child's spleen and stomach function will become weaker and weaker. Once the spleen and stomach are out of harmony, they are not digested and absorbed, where will the child get the nutrition to grow taller and stronger?
Outpatient cases
A Niu Niu who saw a doctor yesterday morning, 9 years old and 142cm tall, at first glance the height is very good, but the breast development has reached stage 3, a week ago menarche, I took a look at the bone age film is already 12 and a half years old, on the growth curve of 150.
This result makes Niuniu's mother unacceptable, although she is not tall, but her father has 175, according to the genetic formula, how can Niuniu grow to 1.6 meters.
After further inquiry, I learned that the reason for Niuniu's precocious puberty was that she ate too much. Niuniu has lived with her grandparents since she was a child, and the old couple always said that they can grow taller only if they eat well, so the food at home has always been meat dishes, and every bowl of rice must be eaten, Niuniu really can't eat it and has to eat it, so Niuniu has been a fat girl who has been loved by everyone since she was a child, and now she is 142cm, weighing 85 pounds, 15 pounds fatter than normal children, which also lays a hidden danger for precocious puberty.
I want my child to grow taller, and I am hungry at 1 point
Moderate hunger can not only help children control their weight, but also be good for their spleen and stomach, helping them grow taller. Especially after 8 p.m., don't let your child eat any more foods, including fruit and milk.
The peak period of growth hormone secretion is at night when the child enters a deep sleep, the child eats too much, and the blood sugar will rise, and the high blood sugar level will inhibit the secretion of growth hormone.
In addition, if the child is too full and the child has rested, but the spleen and stomach are still working, it is easy to sleep tossed and turned, sleeping on the stomach, crying at night, etc., resulting in the child being unable to enter deep sleep, which will directly affect the secretion of growth hormone.
Children are not hungry, and most of them eat badly
Of course, being hungry does not really mean that the child is hungry, not eating anything or eating too little, but the amount that the child's spleen and stomach can digest.
How to judge this amount? Parents and friends can judge by the child's tongue coating, tone, and bowel movements.
If the child's tongue coating is thick, there is a sour and rancid taste in the mouth, and the poop is abnormal, it means that the child has eaten more than the amount that the spleen and stomach can digest and absorb, and has accumulated food.
If you want your child to grow taller, adjust your diet like this
1. Try to eat lightly, heavy oil and salt, spicy, fatty, sweet, raw and cold food, don't give it to your child if you can't eat it.
2. Judge whether the child has accumulated food through tongue coating, breath and defecation every day;
3. Don't chase after feeding, let the child eat independently, and eat as much as he can;
4. Children over 3 years old, don't give your child food when you are hungry, and develop a good habit of three meals a day;
Babies over 5 and 2 years old can try to quit bedtime milk;
6. Try not to eat indigestible foods at dinner, and try to put high-protein foods such as meat, eggs and milk during the day.
