These things are actually injections of growth hormone. They claim that children under 12 years old "have injections every day, and their height is 10cm for half a year", which is fascinating. To understand the truth of "increasing needle", we have to start with hormones.
What is growth hormone?
Growth hormone is a substance secreted by human pituitary gland, which can regulate metabolism, promote bone growth and help children grow normally. Usually used to treat dwarfism and dwarfism in children.
Is growth hormone useful?
For example, the famous football star Messi was a typical dwarf when he was a child. Although he is very talented, he is not tall enough. Thanks to the injection of growth hormone, he can stand on the court again. It can be seen that growth hormone can really help some short children regain their confidence. However, not everyone can use it.
Can children play growth hormone when they are low?
Injection of growth hormone is only suitable for children with growth hormone deficiency, and the scope of treatment cannot be expanded at will.
You know, growth hormone deficiency is very rare, and the probability of this disease in the United States is less than one in ten thousand. According to statistics, the incidence of growth hormone deficiency in children in China is even lower than that in the United States. In other words, most children are not short of growth hormone and do not need injections.
What are the side effects of injecting growth hormone?
1, endocrine disorder
If the child's endocrine is normal and growth hormone is abused, it may lead to endocrine system disorder in the body, affect appetite, and lead to obesity or precocious puberty.
2. Abnormal thyroid function
There are also some children whose thyroid function will temporarily decline during the injection of growth hormone, which will cause fatigue, puffiness and hair loss, affect their intelligence and even slow down their growth.
3. Increased blood sugar
After injecting growth hormone, some children will have abnormally high blood sugar. At this time, we should pay attention to the detection of children's blood sugar changes and beware of diseases such as diabetes.
4. Expensive and useless
Under normal circumstances, doctors will not give growth hormone when they come up. Therefore, many "sky-high" growth hormones on the market may not be true. It is reported that some parents spent 480 thousand yuan to give their children hormones, and as a result, they only grew one centimeter in two years.
If you don't take hormones, what is the secret of growing taller?
1, supplementing nutrition and regulating spleen and stomach
Spleen and stomach are very important for growing taller. Because the spleen and stomach are in charge of the transportation, digestion and absorption of nutrients, only when substances are fully absorbed can the body absorb nutrients and bones grow healthily.
Regarding nutrition, parents can give their children more milk, eggs, green vegetables, high-quality protein, fish and so on. Don't forget to add fruit to achieve a balanced nutrition.
Regarding the spleen and stomach, children can be supplemented with some ingredients that help digestion, such as comprehensive nutrients containing hawthorn, yam and chicken's gizzard-membrane. Among them, hawthorn can strengthen the spleen and stimulate the appetite of children, so that children can eat well.
Yam can strengthen the spleen and warm the stomach, protect the gastric mucosa and regulate the spleen and stomach. Chicken gizzard-membrane can promote digestion, improve food accumulation and other problems, and help the human body digest;
In addition, it also contains collagen peptide and walnut peptide, which can not only promote digestion and absorption, but also increase the calcium content of bones, strengthen bones and promote bone growth.
Appropriate supplementation is helpful to improve children's spleen and stomach health.
2. Keep exercising and keep exercising.
Exercise can not only help children improve their immunity, but also stretch their limbs, help the human body speed up metabolism, promote the secretion of growth hormone and stimulate bone development. Swimming can help children stretch their limbs, which is beneficial to their development. Basketball, volleyball and other ball games can stimulate the cells of leg bones, strengthen children's bones and improve bone density, which is of great benefit to bone development.
It is urgent to standardize the use of growth hormone. Let's refuse to abuse growth hormone together, say no to it, supplement nutrition to children in daily life, regulate spleen and stomach, and persist in exercise with children in order to grow up healthily and grow into tall people as soon as possible! # Zero Plan # # Daily Health Tips #
