Three secrets for children to grow taller

  Secret one: sleep As the saying goes, “spring sleepy autumn”, in fact, the human body needs more sleep time in the spring, especially children who are in the growth and development stage, in order to promote the secretion of growth hormone in the body, more need for the support of quality sleep.  1, the doll can sleep high, the longer the deep sleep the higher the growth of the United States “Sleep” magazine has published two studies report that lack of sleep or too much sleep can lead to brain aging in middle-aged people, and sleepy babies are more likely to grow taller. Experts say that adequate sleep is beneficial to a child’s height growth because most growth hormone is secreted at night in a mature sleep state, and the longer the deep sleep, the more growth hormone is secreted, and the child will grow taller. If the nighttime sleep of children is affected for various reasons, it will directly affect the secretion of growth hormone.  2. The early bird has the worm to eat, and the early sleeper has a child’s growth hormone secretion has certain rules, one of which is: 11:00 p.m. and 12:00 p.m. enter the most vigorous time of growth hormone secretion, but must be in a deep sleep state in order to function more efficiently. Moms and dads do the math: it generally takes 45-60 minutes for a child to fall asleep and enter deep sleep, so in order to not miss the peak of growth hormone secretion at 11pm, it is best for the child to fall asleep before 10pm.  Now some parents not only do their own “night owl”, and did not train their children to go to bed early habits, allowing children to follow their own 11:00 or even later to sleep; some parents are in the children to sleep after their own crackling busy housework, did not pay attention to create a quiet sleep environment for children, resulting in children can not enter the deep sleep state early Some children often work late at night to review their homework and stay up until 11:00 or 12:00 to sleep …… These are undoubtedly a waste of the child’s opportunity to grow taller and a deep desecration of the growth hormone Jun.  3, children sleep regularly, height growth is more powerful You think children sleep early, sleep enough to grow taller quickly?  Some children’s health experts say that the secretion of growth hormone in children is in line with the alternating days and seasons, the time to go to sleep and wake up is fixed, forming a regular and stable sleep cycle, the secretion time of growth hormone will be longer than children who go to sleep early and sleep enough but have irregular rest.  Secret two: nutrition If you want your child to grow tall, nutrition must keep up. The first thing you should pay attention to is to ensure that your child has a balanced intake of various nutrients, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, fiber, carbohydrates and water, the seven major nutrients are missing. The child’s daily diet variety, not partial food not picky, nutritious intake, in order to give height growth to provide a more solid nutritional foundation.  1, calcium: the most important thing for children to grow taller Calcium is the basis for bone growth, if the amount of calcium intake can not meet the physiological needs of children, blood calcium and soft tissue calcium deficiency, it is necessary to “borrow calcium” from the bones, once the bones lack of calcium, not to mention the growth of taller, even normal growth can not do, resulting in osteoporosis, vertebral deformation, spinal curvature and other Serious problems. Parents should give their babies more calcium-rich foods to meet the increased demand for calcium in spring.  Recommended foods: milk and milk products, soy products, fish, shrimp, sesame, etc.  2, protein: the basis of life, the elements of growth human tissue and organs are composed of protein, such as muscle tissue, internal organs, brain tissue, etc., and collagen, mucin is the organic composition of the bones. Therefore, protein is not only the basis of life composition, but also an important nutrient for height growth. Spring baby metabolism accelerates, the demand for protein is greater, such as the supply of insufficient will affect the child’s growth.  Recommended foods: pork, chicken, beef, fish and shrimp meat, eggs, milk, tofu, etc.  3, vitamins: life support, promote calcium absorption vitamins means “life support elements”, although the vitamin family members, but the child’s growth and development has a pivotal role, for example, vitamin A, C can strengthen the child’s resistance, and vitamin D will help the absorption of calcium, thus promoting the child’s height growth The vitamin D helps in the absorption of calcium, thus promoting height growth.  Recommended foods: fresh fruits and vegetables such as cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, oranges, bananas, apples, grapes, etc.  4, from a variety of life activity links to regulate growth and development Two-thirds of the minerals in the bones are composed of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus three minerals, so the adequacy of these three minerals content is very important to the elongation of the bones.  Iron, zinc and other minerals can also regulate the speed of growth and development of children from many aspects of life activities, such as lack of zinc children have no appetite, inadequate nutritional intake certainly can not grow taller; lack of iron will make the synthesis of hemoglobin is blocked, growth and development, intellectual development and immune function will be affected, so the reasonable intake of various minerals for children’s height growth is also significant.  Recommended foods: animal liver, beef, lamb, egg yolk, oysters, shrimp, crab, shellfish, etc.  Secret three: sports Let children’s spring height sesame seeds bloom high, the appropriate exercise is indispensable. Children often participate in physical exercise, can improve blood circulation, at the same time can stimulate the epiphyseal plate and bone, promote the secretion of growth hormone, so that bone growth more vigorous, thus promoting the growth of children’s height. According to medical experts, children of the same age often participate in physical exercise than the average height difference of 4-8 cm, some even more.  1, jumping sports: touch high, jumping, jump rope, basketball, etc. Jumping sports can pull the muscles and ligaments, stimulate cartilage proliferation, the growth of the spine limb bones is very helpful. For example, jumping rope is a representative exercise to stimulate the epiphyseal plate and promote growth. Establish a “15 minutes a day jump rope” plan, can let children jump in the growth of tall. It should be noted that when children do jumping exercises, parents should teach children not to land on their heels, otherwise it is easy to cause injury to the knees and waist.  2, stretching exercises: pull-ups, swimming, stretching gymnastics, etc. Swimming as one of the most representative stretching exercises can make all parts of the body are fully stretched and exercise; while pull-ups can stretch the spine, promote the growth of the spinal column bone, so that children’s bodies continue to grow taller. School-age children should selectively do more stretching exercises, while infants and toddlers can do active or passive gymnastics, which can also stretch the body and promote the growth of height.  3, moderate weight exercise: weightlifting, weight running, etc. Some people believe that weightlifting and other weight sports consume too much energy, and easy to put the child “pressure short”, is not conducive to children grow taller. But some experts say that the bones need to bear the weight in order to deposit calcium in the blood in the bones, so moderate weight-bearing exercise, but also help to increase bone density, and thus allow the bones and muscles to strengthen, to promote height growth.
