How can children eat to grow taller?

The height of children has always been a concern for parents. Parents all want their children to grow taller, but height is mainly determined by congenital factors, such as genetic influence. However, children’s daily diet and exercise are also very important, especially the role of diet, which cannot be ignored. So how can children eat to grow taller? Let’s find out through the following article.

In order to make your child taller, you should do the following in your daily diet:

The food should be diversified, with both coarse and fine foods, and a combination of meat and vegetables, so that the strengths of each complement the weaknesses of the other. Calcium supplementation should be appropriate. Foods rich in calcium include milk, pumpkin seeds, etc. In addition, vitamin D, vitamin C, lactose, etc. all help the absorption and utilization of calcium.

In addition, zinc is related to the secretion of gonads and gonadotropin, and has a great impact on the growth, development and intelligence of adolescents. Therefore, zinc-rich foods such as oysters and animal liver should be supplied regularly.

3. Unsaturated fatty acids are indispensable. Foods rich in unsaturated fatty acids include vegetable oils and fats, among which corn oil and soybean oil are particularly rich. Fish oil, lean meat and fish should also be consumed regularly. Vegetables, fruits and melons should be fresh and have adequate water supply.

4. Pay attention to the balanced and diversified nutrition of three meals a day. Eat more high-protein foods, especially those containing "amino acids", such as: cheese, wheat germ, soy products, shrimps, dark vegetables, various fruits, etc. In short, in order for children to get enough nutrition for their growth, they must eat well and eat enough, and the diet should be varied and contain a variety of foods mixed together to complement each other. There is no perfect food in the world that can meet all the needs of the human body. Therefore, the problem of being picky about food and snacking must be corrected.
