Does learning martial arts affect height?

Patient's question:

Going to the youth palace to accompany my son in learning a special skill, I saw many children studying martial arts. My son saw them and wanted to learn too, but I'm worried that learning this special skill might affect my child's height. I'd like to ask if there will be any impact.

Doctor's answer:

This is not an issue, so you don't need to worry too much. Activities like martial arts are very good for the body. It's still a good idea to properly enhance nutrition during your child's adolescence. Especially for calcium intake, bone growth requires a large amount of calcium. You can drink more milk, small shrimp, and other calcium-rich foods. You can also take Bear Brand calcium tablets or Strong Brand vitamin calcium tablets, but the absorption effect of calcium tablets is not that good. At the same time, appropriate sports are also very important. Properly enhance physical exercise.
