Discussion on the article "Youth Nutrition and Health"
In order to make children grow taller, adequate sleep, moderate exercise and balanced nutrition are all important. Science has proved that a person's height is not only related to genetic factors, but also related to the way of raising children. Scientific parenting methods can increase the height of children in adulthood by more than 10 cm. Generally speaking, children's growth and development can be divided into four stages: the first stage is from birth to 6 years old; The second stage is 7 ~ 12 years old, which is also called developmental stage in medicine; In the third stage, girls 13 ~ 15 years old, boys 14 ~ 16 years old, which is the peak of development; The fourth stage is low tide, with girls 17 ~ 19 years old and boys 18 ~ 20 years old. At this time, the epiphysis of the long bone began to close and the height growth gradually slowed down. Therefore, from birth to the end of the long term, parents should pay attention to the following points: First, pay attention to the nutritional balance: body length is the sum of the head, spine and lower limbs, and it is an important symbol reflecting the growth of bones, especially long bones. When children's bone growth and nutrition can't meet the needs, 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 lead to short stature of children. In addition, the growth and development of human organs and bone tissues depends on the balance of nutrition, and children's vegetarian diet and partial eclipse will affect the normal growth of the body. Children who are partial to meat may be obese or precocious, which will advance the bone age and shorten the growth period; People who only eat vegetarian food will suffer from malnutrition, which will lead to slow growth. Therefore, children's diet should be vegetarian and nutritious, and bad habits such as partial eclipse, picky eaters and eating too many snacks must be corrected. Second, regular exercise: encouraging children to jump and jump is a positive factor to promote long body, which can maximize the physiological effect of height. Physical exercise can make bone tissue supply enough blood, accelerate the metabolism of minerals in bones and contribute to the growth of long bones. When and how to exercise should pay attention to some science. Preschool children's body circulation and muscle system are very delicate, so they are not suitable for heavy physical exercise, and can engage in low-intensity activities such as bungee jumping and playing ball games. After entering adolescence, all systems have developed to a certain extent, which is the best period for physical exercise. You can do light-load physical exercise first, such as pull-ups, dumbbells, throwing and other activities, and then gradually increase the intensity of activities. Different sports have different effects on the body. For example, jumping can stretch muscles and ligaments, jumping and running can promote the growth of lower limbs, and pull-ups, free hanging and horizontal bar can promote the growth of the spine. Third, prevent diseases and treat them early. Diseases have a great influence on growth and development, especially chronic diseases, such as tuberculosis, which have the most obvious influence on weight; Rickets and severe zinc deficiency will affect the development of the body and brain. Fourth, the living environment, social culture and climate area. According to the survey, children in the north of China are taller than those in the south. In areas with good living environment and social culture, children grow tall. 5. Proper use of pure Chinese medicine for conditioning: Chinese medicine believes that kidney controls the growth and development of human body, and the enrichment of bone and bone marrow has a great relationship with the rise and fall of kidney qi; The liver dominates the muscles of the whole body. Therefore, Tianqi, Dangshen, Danggui and other traditional Chinese medicines are generally used to supplement calcium, strengthen the spleen and stomach, nourish liver and kidney, and grow bones and muscles to achieve the goal of growing taller. For short children, it is best to take some traditional Chinese medicine under the guidance of a doctor in the second and third stages of growth and development, so that the height can generally increase by 6 ~ 1 1 cm compared with normal.
