Spring is the season of recovery of all things, and it is also the first period for children to grow taller.
The growth rate of children's height in spring is about twice that of autumn, especially in May.
Because the temperature gradually warms up in spring, children's metabolism has reached the most vigorous period, at this time, blood circulation is accelerated, respiratory and digestive functions are enhanced, and endocrine hormones, especially growth hormone, are increased.
How to make children's height "improve by leaps and bounds", parents can refer to the following four points:
1.Increase nutrition. Protein, vitamins, minerals, etc. are all essential substances for children's growth, and you can eat more foods rich in these substances in the spring, such as milk, beef, eggs, carrots, green peppers, apples, lemons, etc., to increase nutrition.
2.Take care of your rest and get plenty of sleep. Children can secrete more growth hormone when they sleep, and the rate of growth is the fastest, so be sure to ensure that your child has enough sleep time, at least about 9 hours a day.
3.Increasing exercise, especially aerobic exercises such as running, high jump, and ball games, can stimulate the vitality of bone cells, which is a good choice in spring. Of course, it is necessary to pay attention to the exercise time and intensity, not too much, in moderation, step by step.
4.Maintain a good mood. If the child is in a stressful and frightened environment for a long time, the secretion of growth hormone will slowly decrease, affecting the height.
