What foods cause children to have early puberty?

The vast majority of children experience precocious puberty due to their normal diet. Parents pay too much attention to their children's growth and development and always feed them very nutritious food, which leads to an excess of nutrition in their bodies. This in turn causes precocious puberty in their bodies, which not only fails to promote development, but also accelerates the development of their own children.

1. Precocious animals and 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 of poultry. Therefore, eating the necks of chickens, ducks, and geese becomes a high-risk behavior of "promoting precocious maturation."

2. Off-season vegetables and fruits, such as strawberries, grapes, watermelons, tomatoes in winter, and pears, apples, oranges, and peaches that are available early in late spring, are almost all out of season or mature early with the help of "ripening agents" and must be avoided for young children to eat.

3. Fast food and fried foods, especially fried chicken, French fries and potato chips, are too high in calories and will turn into excess fat in children's bodies, causing endocrine disorders and leading to precocious puberty;

Moreover, after repeated heating and use, the high temperature causes the edible oil 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.

Health care products: The use of health care products. Now everyone has a child, so people may pay more attention to health care products, hoping that their children will grow taller, or stronger, and get sick less often. "Congenital deficiencies can be supplemented later in life." Nowadays, parents are particularly worried about their babies being ruined by others, so the food they eat is becoming more and more refined, the supplements are becoming more and more advanced, and some health care products for the elderly are used on their children. For example, many animal colostrums, silkworm pupae, and royal jelly contain relatively high levels of estrogen, and thus can be used to introduce exogenous estrogen into the body, leading to precocious puberty.

1. Tonic foods that can be used as medicine include cordyceps sinensis, ginseng, dried longan, dried lychee, astragalus, and adenophora. Traditional Chinese medicine points out that the more nourishing the medicinal food is, the more likely it is to change the child’s normal endocrine environment, causing an imbalance in his or her physical and mental development.

2. Certain children's oral liquids Many supplements and oral liquids targeting the children's market that claim to "grow taller and stronger" contain hormone ingredients. These hormones make children grow taller and stronger than other children of the same age when they are five or six years old, and their bone age has reached 8 or 10 years old. However, when the child enters the normal development stage, the growth has stopped.

3. Excessive zinc supplementation, protein powder and other supplements. Pediatric endocrinologists believe that children should not take supplements because many children suffer from precocious puberty due to their diet. Therefore, experts remind parents that healthy children can achieve good growth and development as long as they have a normal diet and exercise regularly. For children in puberty, girls aged 6-8 and boys aged 7-10, be careful not to abuse supplements for a long time.

The above article has introduced in detail what foods may cause children to have precocious puberty. Parents must be careful not to let their children eat fried foods, especially fried chicken, French fries and other foods, because these fried foods will form fat in the child's body, which will directly cause endocrine disorders.
