First, the factors affecting height
(1) Genetic factors from parents have great influence on growth and development, but they are not static.
(2) The influence of diseases, such as liver and renal insufficiency, will affect the transformation of growth hormone into growth hormone medium and the regrowth of height.
(3) Children's own physical condition leads to malnutrition and affects their development. The function of endocrine glands is particularly important, such as growth hormone and thyroxine.
(4) Psychological factors, such as some kind of fright, excessive psychological pressure and anxiety, will affect the function of the anterior pituitary gland and reduce the secretion of growth hormone.
What are the diets that affect children's development?
(1) is not suitable for drinking tea. Tea will affect the absorption of iron and calcium in milk, vegetables and other foods, resulting in the lack of corresponding elements.
(2) Don't drink sherbet. Because sherbet is artificially prepared, it contains saccharin and pigment in addition to sugar and citric acid.
(3) It is not advisable to eat more cold drinks. Eating cold drinks is easy to cause gastrointestinal dysfunction, leading to enteritis and diarrhea, indigestion, and affecting appetite.
(4) Food should not be too salty. Too salty food destroys appetite, stimulates mucous membranes, and can also lead to diseases such as high blood pressure in children.
(5) Eat less sweets. Too many sweets will affect appetite, lead to anorexia, and also affect the absorption and utilization of trace elements such as manganese, zinc and chromium and vitamin B components, reduce disease resistance and affect growth and development.
Three, the essential nutrients for the human body
Protein mainly comes from milk, eggs, fish, meat and beans; Fat mainly comes from milk, egg yolk lard, cream, meat, fish, liver and vegetable oil; Sugar mainly comes from milk, grain, sugar, flour, beans and so on. Vitamin a, vitamin B 1, vitamin B 12, vitamin d, etc. They are all conducive to growth and development, and come from foods such as liver, cod liver oil, fresh vegetables and fruits. Trace elements contribute to growth and development, and are widely found in many foods. Calcium, zinc, etc. It is the easiest to lack and should be supplemented.
Fourth, what should I do if my child is short?
If you want your child to grow taller, parents are advised to pay attention to the following points:
(1) Adequate and balanced nutrition, especially proper supplementation of animal protein, can promote the absorption of trace elements such as zinc, iron and B vitamins, and it is very beneficial to feed pregnant milk to children before going to bed every night.
(2) Insisting on physical exercise, paying attention to the combination of work and rest, and being happy are the catalysts for height growth. Specific physical exercises, such as pull-ups, playing basketball, volleyball, skipping rope, etc.
(3) ensure adequate sleep and should not cause excessive fatigue of the body.
Five, common treatment methods
So far, there are many methods to treat short stature, such as etiology treatment, hormone use and nutrient supplement. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly adopts the methods of invigorating spleen and regulating stomach, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis to achieve the purpose of tonifying kidney and filling marrow, promoting bone development, and improving microcirculation disturbance and blood supply of bone cells to varying degrees.

1. Do you want to grow taller?
If you want to make your figure and manner more chic, dignified and fit, you must do gymnastics, increase the flexibility of your spine, strengthen the muscles of your back and limbs, and improve your coordination ability. It is required to lengthen your neck and the whole spine, so that you can grow tall and have a strong body.
People's height is closely related to their body shape, spine and trunk. The height of the spine bends slowly, the muscles and trunk muscles are not strong, and the drooping of the spine affects the height. The neck is 2-2.5 cm and the waist is 2.5-3 cm. Stand with your back against the wall during the inspection. For the normal development of the spine, you can always stand with your back against the wall, so that your heels, calves, hips, shoulders and the back of your skull are all against the wall, so that you can maintain your posture and adhere to normal habits, so that you can develop a healthy figure.
Second, how can the human body grow taller?
According to relevant research, China male, that is, at the age of 25, should be1.80m and weigh 80kg, while female, that is, at the age of 23, should be1.68m and weigh 58kg.. However, there are still some young people who can't meet the standard, and there is still a certain distance. How can they grow taller? In the growth and development stage, providing children with adequate and reasonable nutrition, improving sleep quality, strengthening exercise and creating conditions for height growth will certainly achieve the goal of growing taller.
There are two peaks in the process of human growth. One is from birth to 10 years old, which increases rapidly by 25 cm every year. In the second year, 10- 12 cm, 8-9 cm in the third year and 5-7 cm-10 years old in the fourth year. The second period is adolescence, which can grow to 10 cm in the first year and slow down after 20 years old.
People's growth is due to the continuous growth of osteochondral at both ends of long bones, and the growth of osteochondral has two factors, one is to rely on adequate nutrition, the other is to rely on endocrine hormones, oxytocin and luteinizing hormone in the body, and to rely on the regulation of sex hormones to make osteochondral grow continuously, so people grow taller. Nutrients to promote height are mainly beans, eggs, fish, shrimp, lean meat, vitamins A, C, calcium and zinc, reasonable collocation of fruits, spinach, carrots and oranges, good living habits, no partial eclipse, no snacks, reasonable choice of sports, persistent exercise and happy mood. , can achieve the purpose of height.
Third, bones and height.
The height of the body depends on the bones. There are 206 pieces in the whole body that play a major role in the growth of height, mainly the vertebrae of the spine and the bones of the lower limbs, among which the length of the bones of the lower limbs plays a decisive role. Before the age of 7, the bones of the upper limbs, like the bones of the lower limbs, grow faster at the age of 7-8 and soon surpass the bones of the upper limbs. In adolescence, the bones of lower limbs grow faster and the height increases obviously. This period is a critical period of body height. With the end of adolescence, the lower limbs stop growing. The growth time of the spine will last until the youth and the growth will stop. In childhood, the height of the upper and lower limbs is relatively equal. In adolescence, the lower body is obviously longer than the upper body. In adolescence, the lower body no longer grows, while the spine of the upper body continues to grow, and finally a standard adult figure appears.
According to the characteristics of bone growth and development, our expert group formulated corresponding plans to provide creative development conditions for lower limb bones before puberty, create conditions for spinal growth and education after puberty, give full play to the growth characteristics, and make the height reach the standard.
Fourth, the relationship between sleep and height
People of different ages and jobs sleep. Newborn babies need to sleep 18-20 hours, children 12- 14 hours, adults 7-9 hours, and the elderly 5-8 hours. Studies have proved that people grow taller after 10 at night, which is mainly because human growth hormone is mainly secreted and applied at night, and the secretion speed is three times that of daytime, so it is extremely important to ensure adequate sleep at night.
The hardness of the bed also has a certain influence on the height. If the bed is too soft and the spring bed sinks for too long, the body will be in a bent state, which is not good for the height of the body. The height of the cotton wadding pad on the hard bed is moderate, which is conducive to stretching and turning over. The pillow should not be too high or too hard, and it should be comfortable to sleep. Moderate temperature should not be too cold or too hot, which will affect the quality of sleep and the height of the body.
5. Relationship between diet, nutrition and height
Adolescence is a critical period for human growth and education. It is extremely important to supplement human nutrition in time, mainly including protein, fat, minerals and vitamins, so as to keep a balance, that is, neither more nor less. Maintaining a nutritional balance is conducive to growth and development. We found that milk, sardines, vegetables, radishes, eggs and oranges should be supplemented continuously in the study of treating short stature.
1. Milk: It is rich in protein, amino acids, calcium, phosphorus and other substances, which is extremely important for human growth and bone growth.
2. Carrot: It contains a lot of vitamins A, B, C and nicotinic acid which is indispensable for human growth and development.
(hen's) egg
4. Spinach: It is rich in vitamins A, B 1 and B2, which is beneficial to human growth and development.
5. Sardines: It contains a lot of protein, calcium and phosphorus, and plays an important role in human growth and development.
6. Citrus: contains a lot of A, B, C and calcium. It is more appropriate to eat one every day. Usually partial eclipse can't eat snacks, otherwise it will cause malnutrition, which is not conducive to the growth of the body.
Drink more water at ordinary times, eat less drinks, instant noodles and fried barbecue foods, and keep a pleasant meal, which is in a positive working state for the blood circulation and digestive function of the body and is conducive to the growth and development of the human body.
In short, it is necessary to have a regular diet, reasonable collocation, maintain a nutritional balance and prevent the occurrence of partial eclipse and bad habits.
Sixth, the relationship between physical exercise and height.
Scientific research has proved that physical exercise can promote the growth and height of the body, and the average height of students who often participate in exercise is 5- 10 cm higher than that of students who do not participate in exercise. Physical exercise can promote the circulation of qi and blood, enhance the function of hematopoietic system, increase appetite, ensure the supply of nutrients, facilitate the proliferation of chondrocytes and promote the calcified growth of bones. If you exercise outdoors, regular sun exposure can increase the output of vitamin D in your body. It is beneficial to the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, can stimulate the secretion of growth hormone, can promote the increase of the number of cells in various tissues of the body, is conducive to the development and growth of bones, and is conducive to the sustained growth of the body.
Exercise should be moderate, not too intense, otherwise it will hinder the secretion of growth hormone and affect height. For example, excessive physical strength and insufficient nutrition will affect the development of height. Here are some exercise methods to promote height growth:
1. Stretching exercise: If you do horizontal bar gymnastics, you can lengthen your spine and stretch your upper and lower limbs by hanging for 20 minutes and four times.
2. Bouncing: Long jump, high jump, jumping up and down stairs and running for 20 minutes are all beneficial to the development of height.
3. Full-body exercise: playing ball, swimming, stretching and lengthening the spine and joints of limbs.
4. Static traction: fixed on the bed before going to bed, with one end tied to the foot and the other end tied to the armpit. Tension traction can increase height. If you are not used to it at first, you will get used to it after a long time, which will help you grow taller.
5. Body height exercises:
(1) Stretch the upper part of the body hard to make an increase.
(2) Bend forward and twist your waist left and right.
③ Kicking and stretching activities.
(4) The neck should be extended forward, backward and left and right.
⑤ Take a deep breath.
Do it once a day for 30-40 minutes each time, and make a plan persistently, which will certainly get good results. I suggest you give it a try, don't give up halfway.
Seven, season and increase
All the year round has an impact on children's growth and development, and the body grows fastest in spring, because the spring is sunny and everything grows in spring. This is the fastest growing season for plants in nature, and people are no exception. In summer, the weather is hot, people can't eat well, sleep well, and consume the most. Lack of nutrition has a certain impact on growth and development. Autumn is between spring and summer. In winter, the minimum temperature activity decreases, which affects the growth and development of human body to some extent.
Eight, obesity and height
Scientific research has proved that the secretion of growth hormone in obese children is reduced. Because of human fat metabolism, increased estrogen synthesis, endocrine disorders, excessive insulin secretion and increased thyroid hormone levels, pre-adolescent girls can be obese, girls have early menarche, boys have thinner skin, less hair, female body shape changes, chest fat accumulation and breast-like development, which causes psychological burden to young people. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly limit diet, exercise regularly and eat more fruits, bean products and milk.
Nine, seize the critical period of adolescent growth
The fastest period of human growth and development is infancy and adolescence. A person's height, weight and function depend not only on adolescence, but also on the situation of adolescence.
Puberty usually lasts about 4 years (male 13- 17, female 1 1- 15). At this time, there are three major changes, one is the change of body shape, the other is the improvement of internal organs, the improvement of work and study ability, and the third is the development of reproductive organs. Scientific research has proved that when the human body enters adolescence, its height increases obviously, and it can increase by 1 1- 15cm every year. Boys can grow up to 25 and girls can grow up to 23. The height of the human body depends on the growth of bones. The human spine plays a major role, and growth and development are the key factors to determine height. The bones of lower limbs grow rapidly, but gradually stop after puberty.
Ten, short stature?
When we face short stature, we should have a correct attitude and seriously consider what to do. To this end, I would like to make the following suggestions:
First of all, I or my parents should not be pessimistic and disappointed. We should actively investigate the causes of short stature, first look at the bone age, and then check whether the causes of short stature are caused by the source of disease or growth retardation. If it is caused by a disease, it is necessary to treat it actively, diagnose it accurately and treat it correctly. Never go to see a doctor or take medicine indiscriminately, and there is no cure. We must find a professional doctor and do a scientific examination to make a clear diagnosis.
Don't eat some hormonal drugs indiscriminately. If used improperly, it can make the ossification center heal ahead of time and heal after bone separation, but it will make the body shorter and regret it. Many such phenomena should be paid attention to. It is suggested that we should persist in physical exercise, adjust a reasonable lifestyle and eat scientifically, which will definitely increase our figure.
I use the method of tonifying kidney, promoting marrow and strengthening bones, promoting bone growth and accelerating height growth.
