Why is there such a big difference in height between children of the same age?

Many children are obviously the same age, but one is tall and the other is short, and there is a big gap in height, which has a lot to do with genes, living habits and eating habits.

0 1, height difference, gene is a very important reason? As you sow, so you reap? This proverb makes sense. In terms of height, genes are really a very important factor. Tall children around us generally have tall parents; The parents of children shorter than their peers are usually not very tall. So, I have to say that genes really determine half the height of a child. There is no solution to this problem. If parents are not tall, but they want their children to grow taller, they need to change from other aspects. Genes are fatal.

02. Height is also related to the living habits of children in the development stage. Good living habits can help children grow taller. As we all know, staying up late will do harm to health, and this bad habit is even more harmful to children in the growth and development stage. Children's pituitary gland secretes growth hormone during deep sleep. If they stay up late, they won't secrete enough growth hormone, resulting in shorter height than their peers.

Because only when growth hormone is constantly secreted can children grow taller all the time. Once the secretion stops, the child will stop growing. If you want your child to grow taller, you'd better let him sleep at 8: 30 in the evening, which is of great benefit to the secretion of growth hormone, and you can't miss its peak secretion.

03. Eating habits affect a person's life. Diet is a very important aspect in children's growth and development stage. Good eating habits will help children grow taller, and bad eating habits will even lead children to stop growing and developing, which will lead children to stop developing before reaching the average level and be shorter than their peers.

Nowadays, with the improvement of living standards, many parents don't want their children to suffer because they didn't eat as children, so they keep giving their children various supplements and delicious food. In fact, this will lead to overnutrition and premature development of children, which will also affect their height. Therefore, if you want your child to grow taller, you must pay more attention to nutrition, have a balanced diet and drink more milk.

Therefore, the height gap of children has not only internal causes, but also external causes. Since the internal factors cannot be changed, it is better to manage the external factors that affect children, such as diet and living habits.
