Nutrition of children. Obesity and its causes
Recently, there have been more and more children with obesity problems. In particular, babies or children under 5 years of age suffer from this disease. Those children who live in big cities are especially ill. Almost every fifth child living in a megalopolis is overweight.
And the problem itself comes from parents who adore their child. Parents think that the more well-fed the baby is, the better his health and proper development. Therefore, they begin to feed the children various porridges, sometimes even through force, stimulating them by not going out for a walk. This "concern" is called food violence. A child cannot eat more than his body needs for full development. Therefore, children eat exactly as much as they need. Then how to properly feed a baby?
Food intake
According to a certain regime, moms feed babies. Six times – during the day, at night – once. But often young moms do not adhere to this rule. They believe that if a child cries, it means that he wants to eat, but if not, he is full. This order of things becomes a habit for young mothers, and they simply feed the child with every discomfort. They're doing it wrong. Since infants have unconditional sucking reflexes, they always take food when given to them, regardless of whether they are hungry or not. This helps to develop an appropriate habit. The child is stressed, so you need to overeat him. Deviation from the proper diet of infants leads to rapid weight gain, which negatively affects both the growth and health of the baby.
Genetics
Many parents believe that obesity is embedded in the child's genetic code. They think that their child eats normally, moves actively throughout the day, eats a little, but still well-fed. This only happens when a child eats without stopping, without feeling the limit. But! This happens quite rarely. And the tendency to fatness is very easily corrected by a variety of physical training.
Fullness primarily contributes to the appearance of diseases such as diabetes mellitus. Children who get it before the age of 18 practically do not live to be 50!
Well-fed babies are also prone to developing atherosclerosis and hypertension. Difficulties with the spine and, of course, joints are not excluded. The liver, under the influence of a fatty load, will gradually change. First, fatty liver hepatosis will appear, and then the disease will smoothly turn into cirrhosis of the liver.
Parents are required to monitor the child's diet and diet if they want him to be healthy. It is only necessary to ensure that the diet is correct, and this implies the use of vegetables and fruits. Junk food should be replaced. Let's say it's better to drink water instead of drinks. Also, do not forget to teach your child to chew food well. Because during chewing, carbohydrates are separated, thereby preventing the child's obesity.
