Question
How to treat a child who is a bit too short?
Answer
A child’s height is primarily related to genetic factors. If the parents are not tall, then the child is generally unlikely to be very tall. It is also possible to increase height through efforts in later years. Avoid malnutrition and fad diets; eat more seasonal vegetables and fruits and drink plenty of water. Appropriately digest fish, shrimp, eggs, and meat for high-quality protein. Increase outdoor activities to enhance immunity. Appropriately supplement with vitamin D and calcium to promote bone growth. If necessary, carefully check growth hormones; if there is a deficiency, medication may be required for digestion.
