Features: A child's height is influenced by the parents' height, but it is not solely determined by genetics. There are many cases where parents are tall, yet the child is short, or parents are short, yet the child is tall. This is because, in addition to genetics, many unseen factors such as natural environment, nutrition, living conditions, sleep, exercise, illness, and parental care all play a role in determining a child's height.
The purpose of this book is to help parents utilize the latest findings in children's growth to understand what key factors contribute to rapid height growth, what obstacles hinder it, and when it is necessary to take the child to the hospital for examination—providing scientific knowledge in these areas. The author of this book has been running a short-stature specialty clinic for over a decade, specializing in researching the causes of short stature and its treatments, as well as offering guidance on dietary, sleep-related, and other lifestyle habits. Among the children receiving treatment, some require growth hormone therapy, but most can grow taller simply by adjusting their lifestyle.
This book discusses height growth knowledge from various perspectives, including sleep, developmental status, nutrition, exercise, health, and parental care, before touching on growth hormone therapy. It covers all children, from infants to middle school students. However, there is still no method for adult height increase. Additionally, please remember that height is relative—there would be no tall children without short children.
