The three keys to growing taller are diet, exercise and sleep, each of which is indispensable. According to clinical research, if the three-pronged approach is achieved correctly, the height of a boy is the average height of his parents plus 7.5 cm, and that of a girl is 5.5 cm. If the child does not eat well If you are well-balanced, don\’t like to exercise and are used to going to bed late, you may \”grow back\”. After the growth plates close, you will be shorter than your parents. Ding Qiwen, deputy director of Rongxin Clinic, said that in order to make their children grow taller, many parents will start with diet, drink milk and supplement calcium, but calcium will only harden the bones. It will not directly promote height growth. Children should be given protein and amino acid supplements to effectively grow taller. Plant proteins are best from stone fruits and beans, such as pumpkin seeds, peanuts, sunflower seeds, black beans, white sesame seeds and pine nuts; animals The protein is shrimp, lean pork, chicken breast, fish and egg yolk. Ding Qiwen reminded that a child’s diet is “balanced” and should not be eaten excessively in order to grow taller. A small handful of stone fruits or a piece of meat is enough. Protein and amino acids begin to convert into growth hormone thirty minutes after eating. The highest value of growth hormone is reached sixty minutes after eating. Since the peak secretion period of growth hormone in the body is from 10 pm to 2 am, she recommends that children go to bed at 10:30 at the latest and 30 minutes before going to bed. Supplementing an appropriate amount of protein and amino acids will have the best growth effect. Going to bed late is a killer of your height. But according to Ding Qiwen’s clinic experience, generally, boys who come to the “height growth clinic” usually go to bed late, while girls don’t like to exercise. Taiwanese students have heavy academic pressure and have to wait until twelve o’clock. Sleeping children abound. If parents are still worried about their children\’s height, it is recommended that parents take their children to the pediatric clinic for X-rays when girls are nine years old and boys are ten years old to understand the child\’s current bone age. Since in the modern environment, there are Too many environmental hormones cause precocious puberty in children. For example, the average age of first menstruation for girls continues to decrease. If girls start menstruating and boys start growing Adam\’s apple, it means that the bone growth plate is about to close, which is the final growth spurt. Chance. In addition, in order to let their daughters grow up to have a proud figure, many mothers usually stew green papaya and pork ribs soup or yam, which will also make the girls not grow taller, because the above foods contain female hormones, which will accelerate the closure of the growth plate. It is recommended that Before menstruation, girls should increase protein and amino acid foods every day; after menstruation, they should supplement green papaya or yam to allow growth hormone to exert its maximum effect.
