Moreover, height is also an important indicator of children's growth and development, which can reflect children's nutritional status and bone development. Although each child's development degree is different, the height of children of the same age may vary greatly, but their height development has certain rules and standard ranges.
If after long-term observation, the child's height is always lower than that of children of the same age, or even far below the height standard line, it may be "developmental retardation." Parents should carefully observe the development trend of children's height, find problems in time and solve them as soon as possible.
In the past, the living conditions were not good, and parents could do nothing. It was enough to raise children. Now that living conditions are good, most parents begin to care about their children's grades and height. A small number of parents even "rush to the hospital" and spend a lot of money just to make their children grow taller.
A mother in Zhejiang, worried that her son was not tall enough, began to "see a doctor in a hurry" and went to various "height promotion clinics" one after another. She spent 480,000 yuan a year, but her son only grew 1cm.
During this period, the "needle-increasing" therapy, which is mainly used in medicine for short stature, quietly rose. Many families, if their children are shorter than their peers, or want their children to break through the constraints of genes and grow taller, parents will go to the hospital for consultation and want to give their children a "booster shot".
However, the so-called "booster needle" is actually an injection of growth hormone. Doctors believe that the abuse of growth hormone may bring health risks to users such as endocrine disorders, femoral head slippage and scoliosis. Moreover, the injection of growth hormone to children, due to the different preparation, weight and sensitivity, costs between 3000~ 15000 yuan per month, and often requires injection for 2 ~ 5 years.
Therefore, if parents really think about their children's future, they must use the right method. First of all, we need to know the child's height standard in order to judge whether the child's height is up to standard.
The picture above is the latest child height standard table, and parents can compare it with their children's height. Within the normal standard range, you don't have to worry about your child's development; If the child's height does not reach the height standard line for a long time, parents need to take the child to check as soon as possible.
As we all know, the height of a child is mainly determined by two factors. The first factor is genetic factors. Generally speaking, if the parents are taller, the child's height will be taller. Parents are shorter, and children's height will be shorter, which accounts for about 70% of the influencing factors of children's height.
The second factor is the acquired factor, which accounts for 30% of the factors affecting children's height. Aside from the genetic factors that cannot be changed, as the saying goes, "Three points are doomed, and seven points depend on hard work." Whether a child can grow taller depends on how parents grasp the 30% of the day after tomorrow. Generally speaking, there are five ways that parents can learn.
1, seize the golden season of growth and height
At different ages, there is a golden period of growth and height. There is also a "golden growth period" in the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter!
0 ~ 3 years old children: from birth to adulthood, the growth rate of height is uneven, and the average growth rate of children in the first year after birth is 25 ~ 26cm；; Average height in the second year (i.e. 1~2 years old)10 ~13cm; In the third year (2~3 years old), the average growth rate is 8~ 10cm, and then it tends to be flat.
Adolescence: 1 1~ 16 years old is in adolescence, and the child's head is also growing by leaps and bounds, with an annual height increase of about 6 cm.
Spring: According to the World Health Organization survey, children's growth and development have obvious seasonality, and the height growth rate is the fastest in spring (March-May), which is 2-2.5 times that in autumn.
Step 2 get enough sleep
As the old saying goes, sleeping dolls grow taller, that's right. During sleep, the secretion of growth hormone will increase obviously, so a good sleep is very important. Only in deep sleep can growth hormone be secreted in large quantities.
Lack of sleep can easily lead to the disorder of endocrine system, which will not only lead to children's slow response and difficulty in concentration, but also affect their growth and development. We should not only ensure the child's sleep time, but also ensure his sleep quality.
3. Appropriate outdoor exercise
Exercise can increase children's appetite, ensure the quality of sleep, promote blood circulation and accelerate metabolism. After human exercise, the secretion of growth hormone will increase, which will promote growth and height to some extent.
Tian Liang's daughter Sendie actually had "170cm" when she measured her height at1year.
Although Ye Yixi later said that Mori Yoshiro stood on tiptoe, the exact height was 158cm, which was quite high. In fact, Jason's height has a lot to do with her love of sports. Besides diving, Sen can do almost anything, such as swimming, football, roller skating, rock climbing, javelin throwing, running, skateboarding, surfing, high jump and tennis. ...
Of course, improper exercise methods may damage bones and affect growth, such as lifting weights, lifting dumbbells, practicing tensioners, wrestling, long-distance running and so on. 1~2 years old children can take him for a walk, climb stairs, throw toy basketball, etc. When the child is older, we can jog, play football, jump rope and swim with him. We can try to make sports interesting, so that children will play more enthusiastically and actively.
Step 4 keep a good mood
Negative emotions such as depression, tension and fear will inhibit the secretion of growth hormone; On the contrary, a happy mood will promote the secretion of growth hormone. Parents' love, tolerance and acceptance will make children feel endless sense of security and happiness, and children's physical functions will work normally, secrete more growth hormones and grow taller more easily.
5. A balanced diet
Balanced nutrition can make you grow taller. If you want to grow taller, you must eat well. The so-called "eat well" does not mean "stuffing" the child's mouth all the time and finally eating into a little fat man. However, it is necessary to ensure a balanced nutrition and a reasonable diet structure, so that the main and non-staple foods, vegetarian food, coarse grains and flour and rice can be simultaneously developed.
When matching your child's daily diet, you can start from the following aspects:
In addition, parents should also pay attention to several bad habits that affect their children's growth. For example, don't eat too much meat. Eating a lot of meat will not only lead to obesity, but also lead to excessive dietary protein, which will lead to the loss of calcium; Eat more coarse grains. Grain is a food with high calcium and vitamin D content, and vitamin D is an important nutrient to promote calcium absorption. The food should not be too salty. Calcium in human body is excreted from urine together with sodium. Therefore, if you eat too much salt, the amount of sodium in urine will be more, and the amount of calcium in urine will also increase, leading to the loss of calcium in the body.
I used to cook for my baby. First, I have to worry about what to buy every day, then I have to worry about how to cook, and finally I have to worry about how to make him eat more and grow taller. Sometimes I cook with my heart for hours, and he doesn't eat a bite. No wonder he is short and thin, and he really feels his hair is white.
Now, according to the principle of combining staple food, non-staple food, vegetarian food and coarse grains with flour and rice in this children's growing diet, I do it in different ways every day, and the baby is very happy.
The effect is also immediate. In half a year, the child has grown 6cm. According to this trend, one year 12cm is not a problem.
Moreover, the book also carefully teaches us how to supplement nutrition for babies of different ages. This age-specific diet for children can fully supplement children's nutrition.
I believe that many parents are not unwilling to learn to do, but simply can't learn. If you are like me, "you can learn it at a glance, but if you learn it, you will lose it", I suggest you start this set of children's growth recipes for your children. The steps in the book are detailed, the ingredients and dosage are clearly written, and there is a "fool version" video teaching. Both Bao Da, who can't cook, and the old people at home can easily learn to cook nutritious and beautiful meals.
What is nutritious for breakfast? What to eat for lunch to replenish energy? What do you need to eat for daily ailments? There are more than 240 recipes in the book, which can meet the needs of children for half a year. At first, it was 108 yuan. Now all we need is 68 yuan to apply for a limited group purchase price.

The height of a child is really important. Sometimes, if you are not tall enough, you will miss a good university and a good major. However, parents have to be short-sighted.
What we need to do is to help children break the bondage of heredity by scientific methods, and let them grow taller naturally through five aspects: exercise, diet, sleep, golden period of growth and emotion.
