As the saying goes, 'One white covers up a hundred ugliness.' Parents also hope that their children have fair skin, but if both parents have darker skin, it is very normal for their children to have darker skin. However, although innate conditions cannot be changed, skin color can still be improved through postnatal efforts. What is the reason why the child is too dark?
In fact, the color of the skin mainly depends on the content of melanin in the skin. There are many reasons for dark skin, but to a large extent, the color of the skin is determined by genetic factors. For example, if both parents or one parent is born with dark skin, the child is likely to be inherited. In addition, exposure to sunlight, improper diet, and the effects of medication or illness can also cause skin darkening.
For example, dark skin may also be a skin disease, especially skin diseases caused by certain food allergies, such as raw onions, raw garlic, chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, chives, alcohol, fish, shrimp and other foods, which can also trigger skin reactions, resulting in rash clusters and ultimately leaving pigments that make the skin black.
In daily life, children should prevent skin darkening by first paying attention to sun protection, keeping their skin clean and moisturized, drinking more milk, and eating foods rich in vitamins, such as tomatoes, kiwis, lemons, etc. Parents should also pay attention to their children's physical health in daily life. When they notice that their children's skin is abnormally dark, they must take it seriously.
