How can children grow taller?

Parents all hope that their children are better than themselves, in every aspect, including height. They don’t want their children to be short and be laughed at by their parents. This will also have an impact on the children’s own psychology. So they have been wondering how to make their children have a tall and straight height? In what aspects should we make efforts? Now let me tell you how children can grow taller.

1. Don’t miss the growth spurt

During the growth and development of children, there are two peak growth periods, one is infancy and the other is puberty. Infancy refers to the period from 0 to 1 year old. This stage is the period of fastest growth and most susceptible to external factors. The quality of growth during infancy directly affects the growth during early childhood and childhood, and the growth during childhood lays the foundation for puberty.

2. Focus on nutrition

Adequate and reasonable nutrition is the material basis for children's growth and development. Adequate nutrition means sufficient daily intake of calories and various nutrients, including protein, fat, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, vitamins, inorganic salts and water. In a diet that includes both meat and vegetables, nutrition should be comprehensive and sufficient. Many children's growth retardation is closely related to nutritional deficiencies.

3. Don’t neglect exercise

Under the premise of ensuring adequate nutrition supply, physical activity is the most effective way to promote physical development and enhance physical fitness. Although exercise itself cannot increase genetically predetermined height, it can help maximize genetic potential.

4. Get enough sleep

The hormone that promotes human growth - growth hormone, is secreted about three times more in the sleeping state than in the awake state, so ensuring adequate sleep is beneficial to height growth. Muscles relax during sleep, which helps the joints and bones stretch.

5. Actively prevent and treat diseases

Various acute and chronic diseases that cause physiological dysfunction can have a direct impact on children's growth and development, but the extent of the impact depends on the location of the lesion, the duration of the disease and the severity of the disease.

After reading the above about how children can grow taller, I believe parents and friends have some understanding. Regarding the problem of children's height, in daily life, pay attention to the supply of nutrition, encourage children to participate in more physical exercise, ensure adequate sleep, pay attention to the physical condition of children, and pay special attention to these aspects when children are in the two growth peaks.
