Parents look at children who are much shorter than their peers. I wonder if they have ever reflected on the correct way to feed their children? In fact, every parent not only wants his children to study well, get ahead and honor their ancestors, but also wants their children to be handsome, handsome and beautiful, at least with a decent figure.

Besides physical exercise, what should parents do to help their children grow sturdily?

First of all, we should understand the basic knowledge of children's physical development: the development of girls begins at the age of zero and ends at the age of 18. At the age of 8, their bodies suddenly grow taller and look different every year, and their reproductive organs begin to develop at the age of 1 1. The development of boys begins at the age of zero, and basically ends at the age of 20. 10 grows rapidly, 1 1 0/3 years old, and the reproductive organs begin to develop rapidly.

Second, according to children's developmental characteristics, combined with different nutritional components of food, children's eating habits are constantly adjusted to achieve comprehensive, rich, nutritious and healthy complementary food. Ensure the healthy growth of children.

The body needs to grow higher and higher, and needs six kinds of nutritional supplements and dietary fiber regulation:

(a) sugar-exists in fruits, rice, wheat, sweet potatoes, corn and other foods, is the need of human energy supply.

(2) protein-the stored energy of human body exists in food such as egg protein, rice and meat.

(3) Fat-exists in vegetable oil and animal oil. The food the body needs is also one of the spare energy.

(4) Water-About 70% of the human body is made up of water, and people who don't drink water for seven days will die. If you drink water and don't eat, you can persist for 49 days. Water is very important.

(5) Inorganic salts have several points to talk about.

1, calcium, an element that maintains the heart, nervous system, metabolism, bones and teeth. Calcium deficiency can lead to osteoporosis or rickets. Calcium supplementation is mainly to promote physical development. The foods with the best calcium content are plant soybeans and animal shrimps.

2, phosphorus, phosphorus exists in every cell of the body, and the components of bones combined with calcium, like phosphorus deficiency, will suffer from rickets or osteoporosis, and phosphorus supplementation will also promote physical development. The foods with the best phosphorus content are plant soybeans and animal shrimps.

3. Trace elements such as iron, magnesium, potassium, zinc, copper, sodium and iodine should also be properly supplemented. Iron deficiency will lead to anemia, magnesium deficiency will lead to osteoporosis, iodine deficiency will lead to neck diseases, sodium deficiency will lead to hypertension and edema, zinc deficiency will lead to stunting, and copper deficiency will lead to poor disease resistance and low hematopoietic function. Need to supplement trace elements.

(VI) Functions of vitamin series

1, vitamin A, protects the trace elements in the eyes, and the best supplementary foods are carrots and animal liver.

2, vitamin B, a trace element that protects the skin (the bane of beriberi), the best supplementary food is the skin of fruits and grains.

3, vitamin C, a trace element that protects blood vessels and teeth, and the best food to supplement is pepper.

4. Vitamin D, a trace element that allows bones to absorb calcium, exists in the yolk of fruits and eggs.

(7) Dietary fiber. Dietary fiber has no nutrition, but it exists in the small intestine to help food digest physically. The main food with high content is potatoes. You can eat a little, but you can't eat more, otherwise too much dietary fiber will prevent inorganic salts of nutrients from entering the blood in the intestine, and no inorganic salts will affect the growth of children's bones.

Third, according to the composition share of various elements in the human body, consciously allocate supplements as needed. Make up for what you lack and what you don't lack, otherwise it will hurt your healthy development. Parents should pay attention to and correct the food and nutrition that children need most for growth and development. Adjust children's nutritional needs purposefully. This is a continuous concern. Many parents always complain that they can't start taking care of their children. Caring for a reasonable diet is one of the ways to care.

Fourth, we should pay attention to the combination of work and rest. When children grow up, they should strengthen physical exercise or general housework, but they should not be too tired and have a proper rest. Children's physical development is still immature, so they must not engage in high-intensity labor or exercise like adults, which is easy to cause developmental stagnation. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure a good sleep time of more than eight hours. This requires parents to always pay attention to their children's rest time, don't stay up late at night, go to bed early and get up early. This is also one of the factors that parents need to pay attention to.

Fifth, in the case of reasonable dietary supplements, we should also be careful not to yell loudly during the child's growth, and don't often unconsciously or intentionally stimulate the child to be overly excited. Being in a state of joy, anger, resentment and fear for a long time is easy to cause endocrine disorders in children and affect the secretion of growth hormone. The decrease of growth hormone secretion will cause children's mood to fluctuate.

Therefore, parents must consider trying to ensure that their children are not affected by emotional fluctuations of external factors.

6. Refuse junk food: eat less barbecue food, fried food, smoked food, pickled food and moldy food, because these foods contain a lot of carcinogens, additives, expansion agents or aflatoxin, nitrite and other ingredients. Long-term consumption will inhibit the growth of the body, damage the liver function, and may cause diseases, hyperglycemia, gout or renal failure and uremia in uric acid is too high. Some foods, such as visceral lymph of animals, can't be eaten. The safety of these foods is not guaranteed, which is not good for children's growth and development, and may also bring diseases. So in general, don't go to unlicensed places, snack bars, etc. Eat snacks so as not to affect the healthy growth of children.

Seventh, the environment is also one of the factors that affect children's growth. If the air quality in the residence is not good, and the air content of formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, chemicals and plastic products exceeds the standard, it will inhibit growth and cause a series of diseases.

Eighth, the climate also has certain influence on height development. For example, in autumn and winter, the cold body grows slowly, and in spring and summer, the warm body grows faster. This is a rule, but we should also pay attention to keeping warm in winter and dissipating heat in summer in order to grow taller quickly. Because autumn and winter are colder than 10, you can wear more clothes to keep out the cold and ensure that your body will not lose energy and water because of the cold. In spring and summer, when the weather is over 26 degrees, you need to wear less clothes to dissipate heat, so as to avoid sweating and losing salt and water because of the sultry body. At the same time, your body is prone to heatstroke because of wearing too much sunshine, so the cholesterol in your body can't be converted into vitamin D, and there is no way to absorb calcium to promote the development of bones, and your body will grow slowly. Therefore, climate change should also pay attention to children's clothes.

In short, every family has the opportunity to make their children grow taller. The question is whether you have the confidence to properly supplement their nutritional needs, reject junk cancer-causing food, and eliminate the impact of environmental climate change on their physical and mental health.

Parents can't use congenital genes as an excuse. The key factors to guide children to grow taller are nutritional supplement, improvement of good living environment, change of weather and cultivation of comfortable mood, and reasonable combination of work and rest.
