The fact that adolescent idiopathic kyphosis that develops from the upper grades of elementary school to junior high school is unrelated to eating habits is a group of Professor Morio Matsumoto of Keio University School of Medicine, Professor Yuji Nishiwaki of Toho University School of Medicine, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Preventive Medicine Association. It became clear in the joint research.
According to Keio University, the research group asked 2013 junior high school girls who underwent a secondary scoliosis examination conducted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Preventive Medicine Association from 2015 to 2 to undergo an X-ray examination and detailed eating habits. I proceeded with the investigation.
As a result, ingestion of nutrients such as calcium, vitamin D, and manganese, which were suspected to be related to scoliosis in past animal experiments and human studies, and food intake such as milk, dairy products, and seafood containing a large amount of them. The amount was found to be independent of the onset.
Idiopathic adolescent scoliosis is a disorder in which the spine bends as it grows, and it is said that more than 9% of girls are girls and 1 to 2% of junior high school girls develop it.Children with scoliosis and their parents are worried about what foods to eat and what they shouldn't, but even if there are nutrients or foods that have been suspected so far, the doubts and concerns are clearly addressed. I couldn't answer.
The research group says the study has helped children with scoliosis and their parents to relieve some of their anxieties about their lives.
