A person's height depends on the regulation of heredity, nutrition and endocrine hormones on the growth rate. Under normal circumstances, there are two peaks in height growth. The first peak is from birth to 3 years old, and the second peak is adolescence. For parents, mastering the law of children's height growth is helpful to find the abnormality of children's height early, so as to take corresponding treatment or intervention measures earlier.
Factors affecting children's height
Congenital genetic factor
It is directly related to the height of parents and does not rule out atavism.
Acquired genetic factor
Besides nutrition, adequate sleep and proper exercise are also important, and acquired factors are also important.
It is good to pay attention to children's nutrition, but it is not good for children to eat too much and gain weight. Fat children are easily teased by others at school when playing with friends, and children who are too short and thin are more likely to be bullied.
