Although children need to eat a variety of foods to absorb different nutrients and promote healthy growth, some foods cannot be eaten temporarily due to the incomplete development of many systems and organs in their bodies. Recently, a parent asked if children can eat cow eggs?
It is best for children not to eat cow eggs because they are the part that secretes male hormones. Therefore, cow eggs contain a large amount of male hormones. If boys eat cow eggs, it may promote the development of secondary sexual characteristics, such as the appearance of Adam's apple, voice changes, and body hair growth, leading to precocious puberty. On the contrary, if girls eat cow eggs, it will inhibit the secretion of female hormones, causing endocrine disorders and a tendency towards masculinity.
In addition to cow eggs, there are also some foods that are not suitable for children to eat. For example, there are some foods made with ginseng in the market, such as ginseng milk powder, candy, malt extract, biscuits, etc. This is because ginseng also has the effect of promoting the secretion of sex hormones. If children often eat foods containing ginseng, it can also lead to precocious puberty and seriously affect the normal development of the body.
In addition, oranges should not be eaten too much by children. Although they are rich in nutrients, excessive intake of anthocyanins can easily lead to skin diseases or abdominal pain, diarrhea, and even bone diseases. Spinach, on the other hand, contains a large amount of oxalic acid that can form calcium and zinc oxalate with calcium and zinc in the human body, which cannot be absorbed and utilized by the body, resulting in calcium and iron deficiency. This not only affects tooth and bone growth, but also intellectual development.
