Nutrition and children's physical development, people's appearance can't be changed by themselves, but people's body can be changed by acquired factors, providing enough nutrition, that is, various nutrients necessary for children's growth and development. The following is an article I shared with you about nutrition and children's physical development.
Nutrition and children's physical development 1
(1) Adequate protein supply: protein is the best "building material" for children's growth and development. Adults need about 80 grams of protein every day, while children need more. We should not only ensure the quantity of protein, but also pay attention to the quality. Animal foods, such as fish, meat, eggs, milk, etc., contain complete amino acids necessary for human body and have high nutritional value, so supply and demand should be guaranteed. Protein of soybean is also excellent, so children should be given more tofu and bean products. Paying attention to the scientific collocation of diet, such as the collocation of beans, peanuts, vegetables and animal foods, can further improve the nutritional value of protein, learn from each other's strong points and increase the absorption of vitamins and minerals. It is reported that lysine and nucleic acid are closely related to height. These foods are rich in lysine and nucleic acid and should be given to children regularly.
(2) Supply abundant calcium: Calcium is an important raw material for bones. Preschool children need 600 mg of calcium every day, primary school students need 800 mg, and middle school students need 1200 mg. If the calcium supply in food is insufficient, infants will suffer from rickets, and school-age children will not grow tall. Therefore, attention should be paid to the supply of foods rich in calcium, such as milk, beans and their products, sesame sauce, kelp, shrimp skin, melon seeds, green leafy vegetables and so on. Supplementing infants and school-age children with appropriate calcium and cod liver oil is also beneficial to the growth of height. In addition, encourage children to participate in outdoor activities and get more sunshine, because ultraviolet rays in the sun can convert dehydrocholesterol in the skin into vitamin D3, which is helpful for calcium absorption.
(3) Eat less sugar: Eating too much sugar can easily affect children's appetite. The reduction of food intake will inevitably affect the absorption of nutrients. Moreover, the intermediate products of glucose metabolism in the body, pyruvate and lactic acid, increase, which need alkaline calcium to neutralize, and the increase of calcium consumption will inevitably affect the growth of bones. In addition, foods containing more oxalic acid, such as water bamboo, bamboo shoots, green garlic and spinach, can combine with calcium in food to form insoluble calcium oxalate, so that calcium in food cannot be absorbed and utilized by human body. So pay attention to how to eat or eat less.
(4) Eat a good breakfast: Eat a good breakfast, because if children don't eat breakfast, the body will have to use the protein stored in the body in order to supply the energy consumption of the brain for classes and activities, which is like fundamentally cutting wages. If this goes on, children will suffer from protein's deficiency, which will affect their growth and height.
In short, in order to let children get enough growth nutrition, we must let them eat well and have a full stomach. We should pay attention to the diversification of recipes, the diversification of color, fragrance, taste, shape and nutrition of food, and the collocation of various foods to achieve the effect of food complementarity, so that the body can obtain various necessary nutrients. It is necessary to correct children's bad eating habits such as partial eclipse and picky eaters. Encouraging children to exercise more and actively participate in physical exercise is also an important factor to promote children's growth. In addition, we should pay attention to children's mental health. Mental trauma, mental stress and emotional depression will all cause endocrine disorders, which will affect growth and height growth. Therefore, it should be eliminated and avoided to create a warm and happy growth environment for children.
Nutrition and children's physical development 2 ① Reasonable nutrition. Breast milk is the best food for baby bodybuilding. Timely supplementation of calcium and cod liver oil can prevent rickets from affecting the body. Adding complementary food and weaning food on time to ensure the supplement of milk can make children gain weight as scheduled. Children and preschool children should pay attention to the diversification of food varieties and avoid picky eaters and partial eclipse. Lack of protein will make muscles flabby and short stature. After the war, the Japanese westernized their diet and forced them to feed their babies milk. In the past half century, the average height of Japanese people has increased by 10cm, losing the image of "little Japan", which is the result of improved nutrition.
② Exercise properly. Exercise should be carried out at different ages. For example, proper crying of babies can increase the activity of lungs and the movement of chest muscles; Older babies should practice crawling to make their limbs have endurance, and at the same time promote the integration of vision, hearing and senses to avoid learning disabilities. Children should practice running, jumping, climbing and drilling more. Some parents dress up their children beautifully, don't let them exercise, don't let them move, and are afraid of getting their clothes dirty; The children are controlled like wood. They are either "bean sprouts" or "chubby" and have no strong bodies.
③ The posture is correct. Children should always change the direction of the bedside in infancy to avoid strabismus; Don't often sleep on your side to avoid asymmetry between your head and face. Practice correct sitting posture and walking posture in early childhood. Usually, children are strictly required to sit up straight, with their shoulders flush, their feet on the ground, their thighs at right angles, their forearms flat on the table, their heads held high and their bodies straight when standing and walking.
Children in infancy should not wear leather shoes. Because leather shoes have poor elasticity, high hardness and low flexibility. In this period, the child's tendons are tender and the bones are soft. Wearing leather shoes too early can easily deform your feet.
5 children's diapers should be suitable. Choose old cloth that is soft, wrinkle-free and induration-free, and fold it into 9~ 10 cm wide and 30 cm long, with 3~5 layers of cloth thickness. If the diaper is too thick, it will make the baby's lower limbs form an "inside picture" or an "outside picture", which will affect bodybuilding.
