Can girls grow taller by running?

Looking at the tall figures of the models, do you feel envious? Most celebrities, especially female celebrities, like to hide their height. After all, according to traditional Chinese concepts, people like girls with slender figures. Being short will more or less affect the image of the goddess. How can we grow taller? So, can adult girls grow taller by running?

Experts say that "genetic factors account for more than 60% of the influence on height", which makes short parents a little frustrated. In fact, there is no need to worry. In reality, there are many children who are much taller than their parents. A child’s height cannot be controlled by genetics, but 40% of acquired factors can be controlled. The first is nutrition.

Nutrition is closely related to height. In addition to fish, meat, eggs, vegetables and fruits, mothers are reminded that milk is a particularly good "height-increasing agent". Milk is a rare natural healthy food that is rich in high-quality protein, and life is the basic form of protein.

In the past, Japanese people were not tall. In 1954, Japan passed legislation emphasizing that milk must be part of students' nutritious lunches, and 200 ml of milk must be provided when providing students with lunch. In the 1960s, in order to improve the national quality and population quality, Japan put forward the slogan "Let a cup of milk strengthen a nation."

Since then, it has become fashionable for Japanese children to drink a glass of milk every day. Today, the improvement in the physical fitness of the Japanese has attracted worldwide attention: the average height has increased by 11 cm compared with the previous generation, the weight has increased by 8 kg, and it has become one of the countries with the longest life expectancy in the world. It is internationally recognized as a "miracle of human physical development."

The second is adequate sleep.

The old saying goes, “Children grow while they sleep,” which makes sense. Medical research shows that for a child in the growth and development period, the quality of physical development is closely related to the quality of sleep.

70%-80% of growth hormone, which promotes growth and development, is secreted during sleep. If there is insufficient sleep, it will hinder the secretion of growth hormone and affect the growth of children. So please, parents who like to stay up late to watch football, Korean dramas, or play mahjong, please make some sacrifices for the growth and development of your children.

Not only that, a document shows that the academic performance of 7-8 year old primary school students is clearly related to the length of their sleep. Among children who slept less than 8 hours a day, 61% performed poorly in academic performance, 39% barely reached the average score line, and none of them were among the top students.

Among the children who slept about 10 hours, only 13% had poor academic performance, 76% had average academic performance, and 11% had excellent academic performance. This shows that children's sleep is closely related to their intellectual development, so children must get enough sleep for 8 hours.

The third is sports.

Physical exercise promotes blood circulation, accelerates metabolism, and promotes bone growth and development. Outdoor sports are also beneficial to calcium absorption. We often see children running happily, getting tanned and strong, rarely getting sick and being strong and tall.

As we all know, after adulthood, the body stops developing. Generally speaking, females develop earlier than males, and of course, stop developing earlier. Another theory is that women will experience secondary development when they are pregnant and giving birth. This is not absolute, so don't have too many illusions. It is recommended that everyone go to the hospital to test their bone age.
