The Importance of Infant and Child Health

  Whether it is adults or infants, health is the most important thing. As young children, infants and young children should pay more attention to health in order to develop and grow better. I have also received a letter asking me to introduce the importance of infant and young child health, as well as the relationship between infant and young child health and early nutritional supplementation. Now, I will tell you in detail:

  The Importance of Infant and Child Health

  The infancy and early childhood period is a critical period for human growth and development, and body length and weight are important indicators for measuring the nutritional status of infants and young children. With the development of the economy and the continuous improvement of living standards, the growth and development of infants and young children are highly valued, and parents are always paying attention and trying their best to ensure the health of their children. But many times, excessive feeding can lead to parents' "nurturing", causing infants and young children to become obese and overweight, which has serious long-term health hazards.

  The importance of early nutritional supplementation for the health of infants and young children

  Early nutrition and its growth and development have a significant impact on the risk of chronic diseases in adulthood. The growth and development of infants and young children require sufficient nutrition to ensure their physical, intellectual, and immune function development. In the traditional sense, the upbringing of children often pursues "more, faster, higher, and bigger", which brings certain short-term benefits to children's growth in terms of physical, intellectual, and immune functions, but often "too much is not enough", increasing long-term health hazards. In the practice of feeding infants and young children, it is necessary to follow their inherent growth trajectory, be reasonable and appropriate, seek a balance between their growth and development and long-term health, and avoid blindly pursuing short-term benefits and causing long-term harm.

  The body is the capital of humanity, and infants and young children need to be healthy in order to thrive. If we cannot even guarantee the health of our babies, how can we be their parents? So it is important to find ways to nourish and exercise your baby in daily life, pay attention to the combination of diet, and do some stretching exercises while hugging your baby!
