Poor Sleep Quality Affects Child Development?

The individual differences in sleep time of each child are very large. Some children sleep for more than ten hours from the neonatal period. For most children, is there a judgment indicator?

Children under one year of age sleep at least 12 hours a day, no less than this time, three to six months of sleep 15-16 hours, six months to 1 year 13-14 hours . This is the general rule of most children.
What is the relationship between development and deep sleep?

The reason why children's growth and development are affected by deep sleep is because growth hormone is most secreted in the case of deep sleep, so ensuring the child's deep sleep quality is the key to promoting growth and development.

There are two peaks in growth hormone secretion

At night, growth hormone secretion has two peaks, between 11 and 3 o'clock. The second is from 4 am to 8 am.

Many people are people who don't sleep at night and don't get up in the morning, so it doesn't affect their growth and development. If you can guarantee that there is enough sleep during these two time periods, there will be no problem.

What Is The Calcium Requirement For Young Children?

The human body cannot synthesize calcium by itself, so calcium can only be taken through food. Calcium in the diet comes mainly from dairy products, including milk, cheese and yogurt. Calcium is an important guarantee for the strong bones and teeth of the human body. Young children grow vigorously, so the demand for calcium is also great.
For infants and young children, Australia's current relevant recommendations are:

0-6 months old: The [appropriate intake] of calcium is 210 mg daily

7-12 months old: the [appropriate intake] of calcium is 270 mg daily

1-3 years old: Calcium [recommended intake] is 500 mg daily

Careful netizens should be able to find that Australia currently provides only daily intakes for infants aged 0-12 months, and does not recommend daily recommended intakes of calcium. This phenomenon occurs because it is currently not possible to recommend daily intake for babies aged 0-12 months. The daily appropriate intake shown in the data is calculated by the following methods: clinically, statistics and observations are made on healthy babies to obtain the total daily breast milk or formula intake of these babies, and then according to breast milk or formula The calcium content in the milk is calculated from the daily calcium intake of these healthy babies. The data provided by these healthy babies, after a comprehensive average, is the daily recommended intake of infants and toddlers in Australia from 0-12 months.

Therefore, for healthy babies aged 0-12 months, if breast milk or formula intake and weight gain are ideal, then parents do not need to worry about calcium deficiency, and do not need to buy additional calcium supplements.

Appropriate intake is good, recommended amount is also good, are some very abstract figures, if you want to apply to the actual operation, then you still need to be specific to the food. A cup (250 ml) of whole milk containing approximately 165 calories, 9.5 grams of fat, 8 grams of protein and 305 milligrams of calcium. Low-fat milk is basically the same as calcium in whole milk. The only difference is that the fat content is different, which results in different calories.

Therefore, for children aged 1-3, if you can achieve 1.5 standard doses of dairy intake per day, you can achieve the recommended daily calcium intake, parents do not have to worry about calcium deficiency, or buy additional calcium supplements. . Of course, for 1-2 years old children, you need to drink whole milk; children over 2 years old can drink low-fat milk.
