As the standard of living improves, the average height of Chinese children is also quietly rising. According to the results of the authoritative journal The Lancet, the average height of 19-year-old men and women in China (1757 cm female 1635 cm) has tied some European countries and ranks first in East Asia!Globally, China's average height is on par with countries such as Portugal, Italy and Spain in southern Europe.
Let's get a feel for this "rubbing" increase.
The average height has indeed soared, but the hearts of Bao Bao Bao Bao are still hanging: "I am not tall enough, what if the child follows me and does not reach the average?"”
Many parents only start to pay attention to their children's height from adolescence. But in fact, adolescence is already the second period of growth of children.
The child's first growth in height**0 3 years old infancy and early childhood is the most important stage of growing taller.
Babies can grow 25 cm in the first year of life, slow down to 10 cm in the second year, and still grow 8 cm in the third year. Thereafter, the growth rate will slow down to 5 7 cm until puberty. It can be seen that the first three years of a child's life are the most important stage for growing taller, and it also has a great impact on the child's height as an adult.
The child's second growth period——Adolescence: The child grows about 10 12 cm per year, during this period, it is necessary to pay attention to the intake of high-quality protein, appropriate exercise, ensure adequate sleep and maintain a good mood.
For a child's future height, there is a widely circulated formula that can be referred to:
Boy**Height = (Father's height + Mother's height + 13) 2 (cm) 85 cm
Girl** height = (father's height + mother's height - 13) 2 (cm) 85 cm
Let's say dad is 170 cm tall and mom is 160 cm, the boy's height range is 163 180 cm, and the girl's height range is 150 167 cm.
The number at the end of the formula represents the part other than the genetics, such as the acquired factors such as diet, exercise, sleep, etc., which will have an impact on the child's height.
That is to say,Through acquired efforts, it is possible for children to break through genetics and grow taller than their parents.
Since the child's height is "destined for three points, and seven points depend on hard work", how can the acquired effort be able to regain these three points for the child?
Exercise persistently
Studies have shown that children who regularly participate in physical activity (especially outdoor sports) can be about 3-6cm taller than children who do not exercise. Growth hormone secretion will be significantly increased after exercise, and there are two types of exercise that are very helpful for children to grow taller:
One is stretching: such as swimming, gymnastics, etc.
One is jumping sports: such as basketball, rope skipping, high jump and long jump.
Sleep should be ensured
A child's growth is closely related to growth hormone in the body. Studies have shown that growth hormone peaks only after deep sleep, and secretion at night is about 3-5 times higher than during the day.
Nutrition should be supplemented
1.Calcium is key
Calcium is the foundation of bone growth. If there is a lack of calcium in the bones, let alone growing taller, it will also lead to osteoporosis and deformation of the vertebrae.
2.Protein should be adequate
Children in the growth and development period have a much higher demand for protein than **, and if the supply is insufficient, it will affect the growth of height!
3.Nutrition should be well-balanced
3-15 years old to grow taller, but also to meet the needs of multi-organ development, nutrition should not only be comprehensive, but also reasonable.
I have bought a lot of books about children's complementary foods and nutritious diets, and the most used and practical one is this "Children's Growing Taller Cookbook".
