Foods that cannot be digested and absorbed immediately are also easy to cause indigestion, indigestion, abdominal pain, severe constipation and so on. , thus endangering the child's physical and mental health; In addition, children who often overeat will also cause excessive kinetic energy intake and increase the risk of overweight and obesity.
"Three-point cold" means that children can't wear too much and can't be too warm. Children are cheerful and active by nature, their basal metabolism is relatively fast, and their exercise is relatively large, so their heat production rate is faster than that of adults. Children wearing too much and too warm will make it difficult for them to dissipate heat, sweat a lot, and get wet in close-fitting clothes. In this case, being blown by cold wind is more likely to have a fever and a cold; In addition, wearing too much and too warm will also endanger the child's own specific immune function.
Therefore, this old saying has a certain philosophy and still has guiding significance for raising children today.
