Almost every parent cares about how tall their child will be.
As we read in the article, a child's height is 20% influenced by environmental factors, while 80% depends on genetics.
When we talk about environmental factors, we primarily think about food, and yes, during the growth process, it is necessary that the child's diet consists of foods rich in vitamins and minerals that are beneficial to health; It is advisable to enrich your child's diet with foods rich in protein, healthy fats, calcium, magnesium and vitamin A.
The child is advised to sleep well at night and to solve any sleep problems in a timely manner - if the sleep pattern is disturbed, the production of a number of hormones slows down, which ultimately negatively affects the growth rate.
It is well-known that growth requires a healthy diet and physical activity.
It is noteworthy that growth in height is hindered by some conditions, for example, growth retardation, digestive system problems, kidney disease, growth hormone deficiency, diabetes, etc.; In all these cases it is necessary to consult a doctor.
The mental health of the child should also be considered. Pediatricians agree that strong and frequent stress is one of the main risk factors that inhibit the process of growth in height.
