1, vitamin-rich food. Fresh vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, which are necessary for human body. Vitamins A and C can make the baby have normal resistance. The growth of human body comes entirely from the quality of imported food. If you want your baby to grow taller, all kinds of nutrition should be balanced.
2. Foods containing calcium. Calcium is the basis of bone growth. If you don't get enough calcium in your diet, blood calcium and soft tissue calcium are insufficient, and bones can't get enough nutrition, of course, you can't grow normally, let alone grow taller.
3. Foods containing iron, zinc and copper. Zinc-deficient babies have no appetite at all, which will inevitably affect their growth and development. Iron is an essential substance for synthesizing hemoglobin, and copper is a catalyst for synthesizing hemoglobin. If iron and copper in food are not supplied enough, babies may often get sick.
4. Food rich in protein. The demand for protein is much higher for infants in the growing period than for adults. If the supply is insufficient, it will affect the growth of tree height. In addition, collagen and mucin are also organic components of bones.
Factors affecting baby's height
1, nutrition
When the baby's nutrition can't meet the needs of bone growth, the growth rate of body length will slow down. Nutrients closely related to bone growth are vitamin D, calcium and phosphorus. Insufficient iodine and zinc can also cause the baby to be short.
Step 2 sleep
Lack of sleep will affect the baby's growth. Generally, newborn babies need to sleep for 20 hours every day and night. The amount of sleep a baby needs every day varies from person to person. If some babies sleep less, but their spirits, emotions, growth and development are normal, there is no need to force them.
Step 3 exercise
3-4 months ago, the baby should lie prone several times a day to promote the whole body activity. With the growth of the month, the basic abilities such as turning over, climbing, standing and walking should be cultivated in time.
4. Disease
Many diseases will affect the growth of baby's length. Generally, acute diseases only affect weight, while chronic diseases affect body length. If after long-term measurement and observation, the baby's body length is always lower than 10% of the average body length of children of the same age, it is called growth retardation; If it is less than 30%, it is abnormal, and it is necessary to diagnose and treat it in time.
