Children at the age of two, three and four have vigorous metabolism and need more water than adults. However, the function of water metabolism organs in this age group has not been fully developed, and the regulation and metabolism functions are not as good as those of adults. Drinking too much water is easy to cause water metabolism disorder, so how old children drink too much water will affect their health. It is important to replenish water to children in time, but the amount of water must be important.
If parents give their 2-year-old, 3-year-old and 4-year-old babies too much water at one time or many times, the kidneys will be damaged if they are not discharged in time. And the baby is prone to dizziness and even water poisoning. Because the human body's water metabolism needs to be regulated by the kidney, if the water is excessively supplemented, the electrolyte mainly composed of sodium in the body will be diluted, and water will seep into cells and edema will occur, which will lead to water poisoning.
In addition, all the organs of the child's body are not well developed, and the regulation function of urination is unstable. If you give your child too much water, it may cause abnormal urination function, lead to frequent urination, and even lead to dysuria in the nervous system. Therefore, for the sake of children's health, parents should control the amount of drinking water every day.
