Two shocking news have appeared in the media recently
.
One is: a 1-year-old girl in Meizhou, Guangdong Province, with severe hematuria, was urgently sent to the doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
The doctor found that the child’s kidney had multiple stones, the largest volume reached 2 cm, and there was also varying degrees of hydronephrosis
.
This child was given a lot of calcium supplementation by his parents, which should be the reason
.
The other is: A 6-year-old boy in Shanxi was hospitalized with cerebral hematoma.
The cause was an overdose of vitamin tablets.
Although it can be treated with gastric lavage, the damage caused cannot be reversed

I don’t know how many such examples remain in real life
.
With the improvement of living standards, people can have more financial ability to pay attention to the health of their children
.
Eating health care products and functional foods is regarded by many parents as the most direct and operable way to be "good for children"
.
Being able to grow taller, replenish the brain, strengthen the body, and strengthen the immune system.
.
.
In the face of the propaganda, parents often have no resistance, and they still compare with each other
.
But this is just wishful thinking

The human body is like a machine.
What affects its operation is not the amount of a particular thing, but the lack of any kind of nutrient
.
Protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals.
.
.
any lack of ingredients will make this machine malfunction
.
For most parents, since they need it, of course they have to "make up", and more is better than lack
.
But in terms of nutrition, this is really not the case

But in terms of nutrition, this is really not the case
.
The effects of various nutrients on health are all bell-shaped
.
In other words, when it is lacking, it is not good for health; but too much is not good for health
.
This is what we often say, "Too much is not enough"
.
Between "sufficient" and "too much", different nutrient components have different buffer ranges
.
Some have a wide range, such as vitamin C.
15 mg per day for a child between 1 and 3 years old is sufficient, but as much as 400 mg, there are no side effects
.
For 15 mg of vitamins, only a medium-sized orange or kiwi is enough, and many vegetables are also high in content
.
This means that as long as the child's eating habits are not very outrageous, there will be no vitamin C deficiency
.
Of course, if you like it, taking a few hundred milligrams will not be harmful
.
Some ingredients have a relatively small buffer range
.
A typical example is zinc.
3 mg per day is sufficient for children from 1 to 3 years old, and 7 mg is the "safe upper limit"
.
In this case, blindly "replenishing" zinc to the child, exceeding the safe upper limit and thus harming the child may be as likely as the possibility of zinc deficiency

For example, in some areas, certain nutrients in food are relatively lacking, and it is not easy to obtain sufficient amounts from a normal diet, so appropriate supplements to achieve "reasonable intake" will generally not reach the amount that is harmful to health
.
The most typical example is iodine deficiency in most areas of China, so consuming iodized salt is a simple and easy way
.
Also, it is not easy to get vitamin D in a regular diet.
Many people actually synthesize it through sunlight
.
In high latitudes or in winter, as well as children who lack outdoor activities, proper vitamin D supplementation is also necessary

However, two basic principles must be grasped for this: one is to "make up for the deficiency", and the other is to "appropriate supplement", not as many as possible
.
What parents should understand is:

What parents should understand is:
1.
"Supplement" is because "the lack of it will cause problems", not because "what can be the health effect of supplementation";

2.
Children's health depends on comprehensive and balanced nutrition, and the human body will not be "healthier" by supplementing some or several nutrients;

If a child has good eating habits, then basically there is no need to take "nutrition supplements"; if a child does not have good eating habits, then no matter how much "advanced" nutritional supplements are eaten, it may not be of any use.

If those "nutrition supplements" themselves are also nutrients needed by the human body, appropriate supplements can be made when the child's deficiency is confirmed.
Many "children's health products" advocate "helping to grow taller" and "enhancing memory".
Increasing immunity, "protecting eyesight," and so on, are purely foolish
.
Although there are many scientific researches doing these explorations, some "preliminary studies" are published from time to time to tease everyone
.
What needs to be reminded is that at the end of these research papers, it is basically mentioned that "this is only a study of XXX, showing that it has the potential of XXX
.
As for whether it has the same effect in the human body, further research is needed
.
" And this "further research" is basically nowhere in sight, and then there will be no more
.
Even, in order to allow consumers to see the "effect" and the so-called "somatosensory", there is no lack of operations to add various drugs to it
.
This situation is even more dangerous

Strictly speaking, we have to say that "the abuse of children's health products may be harmful to health
.
" But when most parents saw this sentence, they felt that the problem was "abuse" or encountered "problem products", and they were "fair use" and "high-end products"
.
In fact, the correct logic is: no matter whether there are problems with the health products themselves, children do not need them; since they do not need them, then why should they take the “possible risks”? Therefore, the rational choice is: In addition to those supplements that are confirmed after medical examinations, the rational choice of various "children's health products" should be-stay away!

Compared to feeding children with health products, learning some common sense of food and nutrition, and making children’s diet more balanced and healthy, is what should be done-this may be more difficult than making money for children to buy health products, but for children It's really "good"
