Advanced content Rickets is a disease very common in children under 3 years of age in the industrial city in the 19th century and early 20th century vitamin D supplementation in the diet of young and effective prevention reduce morbidity. However, this is still a public health problem is very important in many countries. The cause of rickets is lack of vitamin D. This deficiency reduces the absorption of calcium in the intestines, leading to hypocalcaemia, disrupt the process of bone mineralization. Vitamin D is fat soluble and found in animal foods such as liver, fish, eggs, milk ... However, supply is primarily synthesized by the body. Under the action of ultraviolet photochemical sunlight, vitamin D in the skin will turn into vitamin D 1 Lack of sunlight Many children with rickets because parents keep too closely or without conditions for sunbathing (due to geographical factors of climate, winter, misty mountains, cramped housing, environmental pollution ...). 2 severe shortage of vitamin D by the mother during pregnancy can disrupt this balance in fetal endothelial calcium and disrupt the process of bone mineralization, leading to rickets in the fetus. The amount of vitamin D in breast milk is low, infants rely heavily on reserves of vitamin D obtained through the placenta to meet the body's needs. Therefore, mothers with vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy is a high risk factor causes rickets in infants early. 3 children's diets lack vitamin D and calcium, the ratio of calcium / phosphorus is low. Phytate diet (rich in starch), oxalates (found in vegetables) and fiber also reduces the absorption of calcium. 4 Malnutrition Some studies show that, rickets does not occur alone, but accompanied by malnutrition, vitamin A deficiency, anemia. Malnourished children often absorb disturbances, including vitamin D and minerals; and metabolic enzyme deficiency of vitamin D. However, vitamin D deficiency also reduces the body's resistance, increased susceptibility to bacteria, thus increasing the risk of malnutrition. Many studies have demonstrated that malnourished children are at risk of rickets higher than normal children. 5 Weigh young child birth weight at birth (less than 2.500g) have a higher risk of child stunting calving normal weight. The reason is that the body can not store enough minerals and vitamin D during pregnancy, and enzyme systems involved in vitamin D metabolism is weak. 6 There malabsorption syndrome Lack of vitamin D more likely in children with this syndrome. The prolonged diarrhea, intestinal parasitic infections, hepatitis biliary obstruction are affecting absorption of vitamin D and increased risk of rickets. 7 Ways To reserve a room rickets rickets, during pregnancy and breastfeeding, the mother should spend some time sunbathing, walking outdoors. Should eat sensibly, noting foods rich in vitamin D, calcium to prevent rickets in children aged early in the womb and during the first months after birth. Breastfeeding immediately after birth, exclusive breastfeeding in the first 6 months, then complementary feeding. Note to eat greasy, implementation colored powder bowl. Children every day to sunbathe 5-10 minutes to get enough vitamin D. Vitamin D 400 units / day for premature babies, low birth weight. One of the measures to prevent rickets are vitamin D to enhance food for mothers and children. See more at: http://www.lamsao.com/cac-yeu-to-gay-benh-coi- xuong-o-bamboo-p214a67602.html
