What foods cause precocious puberty?

In our daily life, there are many foods that may cause precocious puberty, because there are many kinds of food nowadays, and there are many junk foods that children love to eat. It is definitely okay to eat these junk foods once or twice, but if children are allowed to consume them for a long time, the hormones in them will cause their children to have precocious puberty. Even some out-of-season vegetables or fruits may cause this disease, so parents must be especially careful when choosing food.

Foods that can cause "precocious puberty" in children● Foods that can be used as medicine include cordyceps sinensis, ginseng, dried longan, dried lychee, astragalus, and adenophora. Guangdong people in particular like to make soup with medicinal food. Traditional Chinese medicine points out that the more tonic the medicated food is, the more it will change the child’s normal endocrine environment, causing an imbalance in physical and mental development.

● Poultry meat, especially poultry necks. Most of the poultry sold on the market today are fed with feed mixed with rapid growth agents. The residues of "ripening agents" in poultry meat are mainly concentrated in the glands in the head and neck part of the poultry. Therefore, eating duck necks and goose necks becomes a high-risk behavior of "promoting precocious maturity".

● Off-season vegetables and fruits: Winter strawberries, grapes, watermelons, tomatoes, etc., and pears, apples, oranges, and peaches that are available early in late spring. Almost all of them are off-season or mature early with the help of "growth promoters". They must be avoided for children under 10 years old.

● Fried foods, especially fried chicken, French fries and potato chips, have excessive calories that will be converted into excess fat in children's bodies, causing endocrine disorders and leading to precocious puberty. Moreover, after repeated heating and use, the high temperature will cause it to oxidize and denature, which is also one of the causes of "precocious puberty." Children who visit fast food restaurants more than twice a week and frequently eat fried and puffed foods are 2.5 times more likely to suffer from precocious puberty than normal children.

●Children's oral liquids that claim to make children "taller and stronger" A considerable number of supplements and oral liquids for the children's market contain hormone ingredients. These hormones make a child grow taller and stronger than other children of the same age at the age of 5 or 6, because he or she may have already shown growth spurts and his or her bone age may have reached 8 or 10 years old. However, when the child enters the normal development stage, the growth has stopped. Experts point out that children with precocious puberty will be about 10-15 cm shorter than their peers after entering puberty.

Therefore, you should not let your children eat these foods that can cause precocious puberty. Try to let them eat fresh vegetables or fruits, preferably seasonal vegetables, and do not eat fried chicken or chicken legs. These foods are very high in calories. Once eaten by children, they will be converted into excessive fat, which will cause endocrine disorders in the child's body.
