What to do if you have skeletal dysplasia? You can actually grow taller this way

The harm caused by skeletal maldevelopment to children is immeasurable, so during the period when children are growing taller, they should be fed more foods rich in various nutrients, such as bean products, eggs, fish and shrimp, milk, lean meat and other animal foods, vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins C and A as well as inorganic salts such as calcium.

1. What to do if you have skeletal dysplasia

Skeletal maldevelopment seriously affects children's health. For this reason, as parents, we should have the responsibility to effectively prevent the occurrence of skeletal maldevelopment. Therefore, it is very important to arrange a reasonable diet.

There are two peak periods in the process of human growth: one is infancy, and the other is adolescence. Nutrition is the basis for promoting height growth during this period. Children should be fed more foods rich in various nutrients, such as bean products, eggs, fish and shrimp, milk, lean meat and other animal foods, vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins C and A and inorganic salts such as calcium, especially calcium. Adding appropriate amounts of calcium and cod liver oil to toddlers and school-age children is very beneficial for growth.

Bodybuilding experts often say that "children who sleep well will grow taller." Scientists have found that the peak secretion of growth hormone occurs when children are sleeping - after 10 pm, and lasts for a longer time. If you want your child to grow taller, make sure he or she goes to bed before 10 o'clock at night. Sufficient sleep is an important way to promote your baby's growth.

2. How to grow taller

1. Don’t miss the rapid growth period: The peak of height growth for most Han Chinese children is around 12 years old for girls and around 14 years old for boys; more than 90% of girls have the fastest height growth between 11 and 13 years old, and boys between 13 and 15 years old. In order to make children grow taller, parents should pay special attention to issues such as nutrition and exercise during their rapid growth period.

2. Pay attention to nutritional supplements: Nutrition is the key to children's physical growth. The energy, protein and amino acids required for normal physical growth must be supplied by food, mainly meat, eggs, beans and legumes. Bone formation also requires adequate amounts of calcium, phosphorus and trace amounts of manganese and iron. Insufficient calcium intake and vitamin D deficiency will cause insufficient bone mineralization. Vitamin A deficiency will cause bones to become shorter and thicker. Vitamin C deficiency will cause defects in the bone cell matrix and make it brittle, all of which will affect bone growth.

3. Pay attention to physical exercise: Physical exercise can enhance the body's metabolic process, accelerate blood circulation, promote the secretion of growth hormone, accelerate bone tissue growth, and benefit the body's height growth. Physical exercises should include vertical exercises such as pull-up bars, rope skipping, and basketball, which can help children grow taller.

4. Develop the habit of going to bed early and getting up early: When in a deep sleep state, 10-12 o'clock at night and around 5 o'clock in the morning are the peak periods of growth hormone secretion. Therefore, children should go to bed before 9 o'clock in the evening and get up after 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning to ensure better secretion of growth hormone.
