If you wonder why your child eat only two or three bites of dinner, but no problem to destroy three large balls of ice cream, accused his growing bones. New studies show that children who grow rapidly, eat more sweet stuff than those growing at slower pace. Survey given to 143 children aged between 11 and 15 years fresh water and a sour orange juice. Then classified the children into two groups – a favorite sweet and preferred less sweet. They found that children who have a high level of biomarker for growing bone in the urine is more likely to be in the group preferred sweet things. “Has long been known that the growing increase of children and the desire for sweet things -” Give me some candy, Grandma, “said Susan Koldlel, professor of dental health in the” Washington University, author of the new studios. They used many calories when they grow, and the body responds to this growing need with the sweet stuff. On the other hand, children who are given a very sweet things from the adults, of course, prefer them. So researchers wonder whether the preference can be attributed to biological or social factors such as whether the child is given a variety of foods to eat and that do not yet feel the pressure to avoid sustaining food to remain low.
“While the reasons for children to choose between cake and spinach can be very, they can be made of sugar consumed by young bodies to efficiently process the sugar in a fuel for growing,” said Koldlel. Other studies say that has not yet demonstrated the relationship between fast growing and a preference for sweet. “This is a provocative theory that the body needs something sweet to satisfy your need for calories,” said Lona Sandon. Researchers also tested the children of biological factors such as puberty, including hormones and found that they are not related to preference for sweet. What all this means for parents who are trying to overcome “cookie monster” in their children?
Parents should try to offer fruits, which also contain sugar, but it is natural and low. For vegetables Koldlel recommended are offered as a sweet raspberry sauce. And if the child still refuses to eat certain vegetables, continue to offer them / Studies show that some children have to show a particular food 15 times before you wish to try it out. Parents should also remember that the time will come when the child will only leave candy without being press. Most likely at the end of puberty.
