"Summer and autumn grow taller, winter and spring grow fatter", and seize the "skeletal transition period" of children to make their height grow rapidly.

It is often said that "summer and autumn grow taller and winter and spring gain weight". Autumn is not only the season of fruit harvest, but also a good time for children to grow taller, especially adolescent children. Don't miss the chance to grow taller in autumn.

Adolescence is characterized by the development of boys and girls' secondary sexual characteristics, and it is also the key period for children's rapid growth and development, and the second development peak after infancy.

"Bone transition period" is the second peak of adolescents' growth and development, which is not only a critical period for the maturity of reproductive function, but also a golden period for the rapid growth of bones and height.

Among the above three growth stages, the most important one is the golden growth stage, which is about 10 years old. If you don't take care of your life properly, it may hinder your child's development and even cause short stature and infirmity.

First of all, parents understand that in addition to congenital factors, acquired nutrition, exercise, psychology, work and rest, etc. May affect the child's height development. Congenital factors are doomed. Parents want their children to grow taller, and they can start from the day after tomorrow.

Calcium supplement in "bone metastasis period"

Many parents follow suit and give their children calcium tablets, and even eat some "bone-setting" prescriptions. These prescriptions may contain growth hormone. Taking too much or too long will affect the growth and development, and then affect the normal growth.

Appropriate calcium supplementation can really promote bone growth. But for children, the best way to supplement calcium is food supplement. Choose different foods with high calcium content for children of different ages.

Children within 6 months

Breast milk is the best source of calcium for children under half a year old.

1-2 years old children

In addition to milk powder, complementary food can be added at this stage, and formula milk powder is also a good source of calcium.

Children over two years old

Most children at this stage have been weaned, so milk sources such as fresh milk, yogurt and formula milk are the best sources of calcium supplementation. In addition, meat, nuts and so on also have higher calcium.

Children over 3 years old

Similarly, soy products, dairy products and lean meat are also recommended sources of calcium supplementation. The most important thing is to pay attention to a balanced nutrition so that the calcium in the body can be fully absorbed.

Appropriate outdoor activities, accept ultraviolet radiation.

When it comes to calcium supplementation, many people think of sunbathing, but few people can tell the real reason. When ultraviolet rays are irradiated on the skin of children's limbs, it can promote the formation of vitamin D3 in the skin before the formation of 7- dehydrocholesterol, and then according to the temperature of children's skin, the corresponding substances are converted into vitamin D3, which is absorbed into the blood through transportation routes such as lymph, and active vitamin D is produced through the action of hydroxylase in liver and kidney.

The final form of vitamin D can promote the absorption and utilization of calcium, so there is a saying that sun exposure can supplement calcium.

Taking children to bask in the sun is also very particular. It's autumn. How should I sunbathe?

Autumn: It is cooler in the morning and evening, the sun comes out later and the sunset is faster, because it is recommended to bask in the sun from 10 to 2 pm, and of course it depends on the temperature in specific areas. Some places are called "autumn tigers" to avoid sunburn due to excessive temperature.

Children over 3 months old are guaranteed to have a "sunshine bath" every morning and afternoon in autumn, so that they can be fully baptized by the sun and get some air outdoors.

Take children to exercise properly.

Proper exercise can stimulate the development of cartilage plate and trabecular bone, accelerate the growth of children's bones, and thus achieve the goal of growing taller.

Exercise frequency: When the weather turns cold in autumn, parents can take their children to exercise for more than half an hour every day.

Exercise time: This can overlap with sunbathing.10am to 2pm. The time of outdoor exercise should be controlled within 3 hours to avoid overwork of children.

Exercise: Choose exercise according to your child's body shape and hobbies. Generally 1-6-year-olds can run and jump in the park. Children over 6 years old can choose activities such as skipping rope and climbing mountains, which can stimulate the development of long bones and cartilage.

Reasonable nutrition

We usually plant green plants, fertilize and water them. In the same way, if you want your child to grow taller, you naturally need nutritional supplements. If nutrition can't keep up, it will inevitably lead to nutritional deficiency and the impact will increase.

In addition to supplementing calcium mentioned above, foods that promote children to grow taller are often nutritious, including protein, fat, sugar and vitamins. Balanced nutrition is the foundation of children's growth and development. Cultivate children's habit of not being partial to food or picky eaters. Mothers should work harder every day to ensure that meat and vegetables are matched and nutritious.

Early to bed and early to rise makes a man tall.

It has been mentioned more than once that the time and quality of children's sleep will affect their growth and development, especially their height. Adequate sleep, especially at 9: 00 pm, is the beginning of growth hormone secretion, which reaches its peak at around 12 pm. If the baby is in a deep sleep state at this stage, the growth hormone secretion is sufficient, which is conducive to the child's growth and development. On the contrary, it is not.

Babies of every age have different sleep times:

① 1 under: Sleep about 12-20 hours a day. During this period, children have the longest sleep time, the most times and the fastest growth and development.

2 1-3 years old: 12 hours, it is best to let children take a lunch break at noon every day, about 1 hour.

③3-6 years old: Sleep about 1 1 hour every day.

③ Over 6 years old: get about 10 hours of sleep every day.

According to the theoretical requirements, children under 10 should get at least 10 hours of sleep every day, including lunch break. Every year of growth, it will reduce 15 minutes.

How to let children sleep well?

Parents should set an example, form the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, ensure the living environment at the same time, eliminate children's physical diseases, which is conducive to improving the quality of sleep.

Who says autumn is not long? As long as life care is proper, children can also be pulled up!
