Chinese kids reaching puberty faster due to more nutritious food
Categories: Nutrition & Supplements
As Jonathon noted today, It's an odd combination -- nutritious food and porn -- that are causing some kids to physically mature faster. Those two items are being blamed for making Chinese children physiologically grow up before their time, according to a new report form doctors in that country.The doctors claim that kids are reaching puberty are far earlier ages than in the past, with the rate of early-onset puberty having doubled in the last decade alone. How is it that nutritious food is causing unnatural sexual-related aging? This sounds fishy to me. You?
In the province of Guangzhou's, rich diets (like soups, seafood and animal innards) are being cited as the cause along with easily-accessible supplements like deer antler and ginseng extracts. It's not Western junk foods causing physical maturity, but healthy foods. Hmm.
Another cause was cited, and it was incorrect sex education. Access to too much porn will accelerate the curiosity of kids, which somehow adds to the early development of secondary sexual characteristics (though it was not stated how). That may be well and true, but I'm still confused on how eating healthy effects sexual maturity.
