A 3-year-old girl weighs 70 pounds, drawing attention to being overweight when she was young

The 3-year-old girl, Paige, has recently become a "net celebrity", but not because she is innocent and carefree, but because her weight is extremely mismatched with her age-

　　A 3-year-old child should have been innocent and carefree, but recently, when a worrying 3-year-old girl, Peggy, who was so fat to walk and wobbled, appeared on the Internet, her weight was extremely mismatched with her age. extensive attention.

　　It is understood that Peggy’s parents stated in a video posted on the Internet that the 3-year-old Peggy has weighed 70 pounds.

In addition, in many videos taken by her parents, it can be seen that Peggy’s “food intake is amazing” and her parents’ uncontrollable extra meals have made Peggy’s weight increase at a “speed visible to the naked eye” within three years.

　　The extremely contrasting body proportions in the video have caused many people's doubts. What should be the normal weight and diet of a 3-year-old child?

What harm does being overweight in childhood bring to the body?

What hidden dangers of diseases will be buried?

To this end, a reporter from Science and Technology Daily interviewed relevant experts.

　　Being overweight at a young age affects the development of heart and lung organs

　　"The normal weight of a 3-year-old child is about 28 kilograms. Peggy's 70 kilogram weight is 2.5 times more than the normal weight, which is equivalent to the normal weight of two and a half children." said Liu Yuan, a professor at the School of Basic Medicine, Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The diet is seriously unbalanced, and the next most important thing should be to properly control food intake.

　　According to the "Report on Childhood Obesity in China" jointly issued by Peking University School of Public Health and UNICEF in 2017, the number of obese children in my country has increased dramatically in the past 30 years. The exit rate will reach 6.0%, and the number will increase to 6.64 million.

　　Because of this, childhood obesity has begun to cause social concern.

Liu Yuan told reporters that obesity is generally divided into two types in terms of the causes, one is simple obesity; the other is secondary obesity, mainly due to endocrine disorders (hypothyroidism, adrenal hyperplasia, etc.) and Caused by the influence of genetic diseases.

"Paige may also need to rule out the problem of secondary obesity."

　　The reporter learned that medically believe that children whose weight exceeds the average standard weight calculated by length by 20%-29% are mildly obese, more than 30%-49% are moderately obese, and more than 50% are severely obese.

　　In the related video, Peggy is eating Hesai, and most of the foods eaten are fried chicken, fried pork ribs, drinks and other high-sugar and high-calorie foods, instant noodles, cola, and other foods that many people think should not be eaten by children. You can also eat it right.

　　Peggy has to bear a weight load of 70 kg at the age of only 3, which Liu Yuan believes will cause some harm to the child's body.

　　"Because the accumulation of fat will squeeze the body's space, especially the fat deposits in the internal organs, for the immature children, the development space of the organs may also be affected. If obesity has not caused permanent damage to the organs, adjust a balanced diet , Strengthen exercise and other ways to restore health." Liu Yuan said that if you continue to eat indiscriminately for a long time, the intake of fat, protein, etc. is too much, and the intake of vitamins and trace elements is too little, the nutrition will be out of balance.

"At only 3 years old, it will affect the future development of children, and the development of heart and lung organs will be more affected." Therefore, the dietary structure of children and adolescents is unreasonable, especially the increase in fat energy ratio and excessive energy intake, which will lead to obesity. happened.

　　The phenomenon of childhood obesity increases the probability of chronic diseases.

Liu Yuan said that being overweight at a young age can cause gastrointestinal dysfunction, such as easy hunger, constipation, abdominal distension, and fatty liver; it can cause obesity-hypoxia syndrome, leading to frequent sleepiness and night snoring; in addition, it can also cause fatigue, Weakness, shortness of breath, cyanosis and other symptoms cause obesity pulmonary heart syndrome.

　　"Children with obesity are prone to inferiority complex, and it is not easy to integrate into the group. After obesity, the children have uncomfortable appetite control, and the amount of exercise is difficult to reach the standard. This has formed a vicious circle and it is difficult to lose weight." Peng told reporters that a 3-year-old child’s daily diet should be balanced. For example, the daily intake should be less than 2 grams of salt, 15-20 grams of fat, 500 grams of milk, appropriate amount of soy products, and 50% of meat, poultry, fish and eggs. -70g, 250g vegetables, 150g fruits, 85-100g cereals, 600-800ml water.

On this basis, it can be increased or decreased according to the child's own situation.

　　Genetic factors and living habits can cause obesity

　　In recent years, every household has had better life, but obesity has become a more common health problem.

According to the "Report on Childhood Obesity in China", in the 1980s, the rate of overweight and obesity among children in my country was still at a low level, but after the 1990s, there has been a rapid upward trend.

　　Nowadays, the "2 and a half 50 catties", "3 years of 70 catties", and "beyond 100 catties immediately" Peggy, which has caused hot discussion on the Internet, is a concrete manifestation of childhood obesity.

　　Sharp-eyed netizens pointed out that Peggy’s small bones have been under tremendous pressure, and her movements are a bit awkward. Her legs and feet are stiff, and some joints may have begun to deform.

　　"Children’s obesity will restrict activity and reduce exercise, which is not good for bone growth. Excessive body load will deform the bones of the legs and cause skeletal deformities. Obesity will also increase the metabolic burden of the organs and prone to metabolic endocrine. Diseases, such as growth retardation, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, etc." Yang Peng said.

　　Nowadays, many elderly people think that "it doesn't matter if children get fatter" and "become thinner when they grow up in nature", and these concepts are likely to cause children to gain weight and become "little fat".

　　Large-scale epidemiological investigations have shown that obesity is an obvious familial clustering. The probability of obesity in children whose parents are both obese is about 70%-80%; one parent is obese, and 40%-50% of children are obese; both parents For those who are not obese, only 10%-14% of children are obese.

　　Experts said that family genetic factors are one of the reasons that cause children to gain weight, and parents' eating habits and life patterns will affect children.

In addition, childhood obesity is also affected by acquired eating habits, lifestyle and other factors. A large amount of sweets and fried foods, long-term sitting, and lack of exercise are all factors that cause obesity.

　　Overeating will invite a series of "Wealth Diseases"

　　Eat Broadcasting is a trendy web live broadcast. The "Big Stomach King" eats through live broadcasts and gets a lot of fans' attention.

However, outside the camera, the protagonist who enjoys the food may not be able to experience the beauty. The unscrupulous "death-style" eating and broadcasting has caused various damages to the body.

　　Liu Yuan believes that in the process of eating and broadcasting, the body often does not necessarily need the food that is eaten. Forcing it to eat will damage the digestive system. It will not only affect the normal appetite, but will also be prone to anorexia over time. Fast, but also pay attention to nutritional balance." He said.

　　"Death-style" eating and broadcasting has won the eye, and with the exposure rate, the negative impact is actually obvious.

The first thing to bear is the physical suffering.

"'Dying' eating and broadcasting can cause damage to the digestive system in the short-term, and obesity in the long-term. Moreover, overeating keeps the stomach in a full state all the time, which can easily lead to stagnant diet and cause bloating. In severe cases, it can cause stomach erosion. , Gastric ulcers, and even gastric perforation.” Liu Yuan said that China’s medical work "Huang Di Nei Jing" 2000 years ago clearly pointed out that "diet is self-doubling, but the stomach hurts."

　　Eating Broadcasting has evolved from the original live broadcast meal to a "Food Contest".

Observing the live broadcast platform, we can find that many live broadcasts win by quantity, and the anchor eats a big pot of pork belly, seafood, etc.; or wins by surprise, live broadcast insects, swallow snakes, etc.; or win by cheating, through fake eating, cutting shots, etc. Ways to deceive fans to achieve the purpose of attracting traffic, solidifying fans and realizing cash.

　　There are other hidden dangers in these strange eating and broadcasting.

"Many people eat special foods for eyeballs, such as raw seafood and various meats. They don’t know that this way of eating can easily lead to bacterial gastroenteritis and a variety of parasitic diseases; All kinds of irritating foods attract fans, but too spicy and other irritating foods can easily lead to acute gastric ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, and even painful hemorrhoids and anal fissures." Yang Peng said.

　　Not only children tend to get tired after overeating, adults can also experience symptoms such as fatigue and weakness due to overeating.

Yang Peng told reporters that after being full, the blood in the body is concentrated in the gastrointestinal system to "work", and the blood supply to the brain is reduced, which makes it easy for people to be tired, drowsy, and inefficient in work and study.

"It should be noted that overeating is not only easy to cause obesity, it is also the driving force of a series of'richness diseases'."
