What are the factors that affect your child's height?
The child's height development is a problem that parents are more concerned about, and there are many factors affecting height, including genetic factors, nutritional factors, sleep factors and exercise factors, as follows:
1, genetic factors: need to refer to the height of the father and mother, if the height of the father and mother is higher, the child has a greater chance of growing taller. If the child's father and mother are shorter in height, the child is more likely to be shorter;
2, nutritional factors; in the height development of children need to pay attention to strengthen nutrition, eat more protein and calcium-rich food, because the main component of the bones is calcium, so it is recommended to eat more milk, eggs, pork, beef lean meat, shrimp skin, bone broth and other foods, calcium-rich foods can promote height development;
3, sleep factors: sleep is crucial to the child's height development, can not let the child stay up late. Because growth hormone that promotes growth is mainly secreted at night, sleep is more critical to height development;
4. Exercise factors: it is necessary to pay attention to children's activities, especially jumping activities, which have a role in promoting height development
The factors that affect a child's height are mainly in the following aspects:
1. Heredity: The characteristics, potential and tendencies of children's growth and development are all affected by the genetic factors of both parents, that is, the genetic information of race and family.
2. Gender: The growth and development of boys and girls have their own laws and characteristics, so when evaluating the growth and development of children, they are carried out according to male and female standards.
3, nutrition: children's growth and development must have a perfect supply of nutrients, sufficient and reasonable allocation of nutrients, can make the growth potential to the best play.
4. Disease: The interference effect of disease on growth and development is very obvious. Acute infections often cause weight loss; long-term chronic diseases affect the development of weight and height; endocrine diseases often cause bone growth and nervous system development delays; and congenital diseases have a more pronounced effect on long-term development.
5. Maternal pregnancy: The development of the fetus in the womb is affected by various factors such as the mother's living environment, nutrition, mood and disease.
6. Living environment: The living environment plays an important role in children's health. A good living environment (including: full sunshine, fresh air, water, cleanliness, noise-free and spacious housing, etc.) and healthy living habits and scientific nursing, correct parenting and physical exercise, and perfect medical care services are all important factors to ensure that children grow and develop in the best condition.
