The child's leg length "one meter eight" is almost the ardent expectation of all parents, especially those who are not tall themselves, afraid that their height will affect the child, they hope that the child can have a taller child.
When the child grows shorter, the whole family is worried, afraid of affecting the child's future. But everyone has their own opinions about the fact that children are getting taller.
So who should I believe? Let's talk about it today.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the truth that affects a child's height</h1>
1. Congenital effects. According to scientific research, the influence of parents on the height of the child is very large, accounting for 70% of the factors affecting the height of the child.
2. Acquired factors. Although genetic factors account for a considerable proportion. But parents can still hope for the day after tomorrow, because the acquired factors can also bring 6-7.5 cm of influence on the height of the child.
That is to say, even if the parents are not tall, the child still has a great hope of growing taller the day after tomorrow.
Common minefields about children growing taller
1. Eat what to make up for, nutrition in a pot of stew
Many parents feel that as long as they supplement their children with enough nutrition, their children will definitely grow taller.
As everyone knows, nutrition is only a part of the child's growth, and daily nutrition for children only needs to be comprehensively balanced.
Several bowls of bone soup a day may not make the child grow up, but it will definitely make the child become a fat doll!
2. Calcium supplementation = long ones
In the eyes of many parents, calcium supplementation and long children can almost be equated. And is this really the case? Of course not! Bone growth depends on the growth hormone and protein and nutrients in the child's body.
Growing up is not just a simple matter of light calcium supplementation, children who lack growth hormone, even if they eat calcium tablets as meals, they can't grow up.
Try these tricks
1. Pay more attention to protein and mineral intake in supplement nutrition
When the child is in the growth and development stage, the need for nutrition is indeed great.
However, at this time, we must pay attention to the fact that the child's nutritional intake must be comprehensively balanced, especially pay more attention to the intake of protein and minerals. Picky eaters are even worse!
2. Get enough sleep
Sleep well to grow well. Modern science has confirmed that sleeping well is closely related to the growth and development of children.
In the critical period of children's growth and development, after entering deep sleep every night, it will usher in the peak of growth hormone secretion by the pituitary gland, and children who sleep well will also have certain advantages in growing tall.
Although the hope that the child will grow tall is almost the expectation of all parents, but want the child to grow tall must adopt a scientific method, folk remedies, secret recipes must be used carefully, the choice of a little careless may harm the child's life, and finally hope that all children can grow up healthily.
