What nutrition should school-age children take in order to grow taller? Pediatrician Chen Yicheng recommended on Facebook that in addition to milk, there is another food that is cheap and easy to obtain, and it is a good partner for children to grow taller.
Dr. Chen Yicheng said that about 90% of the parents would ask in the outpatient clinic: “Doctor, what should I eat so that the child will grow taller?” He recommends that besides milk, eggs are cheap and easy to obtain, which are good partners for growing taller.
He also cited the results of a study in Uganda as an example. In the study, more than two hundred children aged 6 to 9 were used as mothers, and they were divided into three groups: one group ate two eggs a day (five days a week), and one group ate two eggs a day (five days a week). One group ate an egg per day (five days a week), while the other group ate no eggs. After six months, it was found that the children who ate two eggs a day had a significant increase in height and weight, which was better than the other two groups.
Chen Yicheng explained that because of the high protein content of eggs, there are about 6 to 7 grams of protein in each egg. If you continue to eat two eggs a day, you can supplement the daily needs of a child who weighs about 20 kilograms. In addition, eggs are high-quality protein, containing a variety of essential amino acids. Among the various amino acids needed for children’s growth, some of them cannot be synthesized by the human body, and there are such essential amino acids in eggs.
Chen Yicheng reminded that if you want to eat eggs to supplement nutrition, it is also recommended to “eat whole eggs”, because the vitamin-rich part of eggs is in the yolk. If you only eat egg whites, the effect on growing taller may be greatly reduced. He also cleared his doubts. Parents will worry about whether two eggs a day will cause high cholesterol? He emphasized that dietary cholesterol had little effect on blood cholesterol levels in healthy children. “If there are no children with severe allergies to egg yolks and protein, it is really recommended to add one or two eggs a day.”
