Effects of IVF on obesity
IVF is the method of artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization. Embryos cultivated in the laboratory are embedded into the mother's uterus, so that couples who cannot conceive naturally can have their own children. However, with the progress of IVF technology, obesity has gradually attracted people's attention. Test tube baby obesity has an important impact on children's health, and we need to take this issue seriously.
The Influence of Genetic Factors on the Obesity of IVF
Genetic factors are one of the main reasons for IVF obesity. IVF babies tend to have an inborn obesity tendency, which is mainly because when choosing embryos, couples tend to choose relatively "healthy" embryos, which tend to have high fetal weight and body fat content. In addition, if the parents or relatives of IVF babies have a history of obesity, children are more likely to have obesity problems.
In addition, the process of IVF embryo culture and embedding may lead to abnormal changes in gene expression, further increasing the risk of obesity in children. A study found that about 20% of the children in the study had abnormal gene expression triggered by the surface during embryonic development, which also made them more likely to develop obesity.
Therefore, for the problem of IVF obesity, parents need to recognize the impact of genetic factors, and give appropriate control and guidance in the child's lifestyle and diet.
Test tube baby obesity is related to diet habits
Eating habits are another important aspect of IVF obesity. Because the parents of test tube babies often dare not indulge their children's diet, they pay too much attention to providing nutrition for their children, resulting in their children consuming too much energy. After children take in too much energy, the excess energy will be converted into fat and accumulated in the body, leading to obesity.
At the same time, because of the improvement of family conditions and the love of relatives, IVF babies often rely excessively on high calorie, high fat, high sugar foods and like to eat snacks and desserts. Such eating habits may lead children to develop bad eating habits and increase the risk of obesity.
Doctors suggest that parents should make a healthy diet plan, including reasonable energy intake, balanced nutrition and proper exercise. For IVF babies, it is very important to cultivate good eating habits since childhood, which can not only reduce the risk of obesity, but also promote their healthy growth.
Effects of sedentary and lack of exercise on obesity in test tube infants
Nowadays, sedentary behavior has become the norm for many people, especially for IVF. IVF babies often receive meticulous care in the family, lacking sufficient outdoor activities and sports. Long term sitting will not only affect the development of cardiopulmonary function, but also lead to low basal metabolic rate and accelerate the accumulation of fat.
Different from the natural reproduction of children, IVF has gone through the cultivation and embedding under laboratory conditions during embryonic development, which further weakens the children's motor ability. In this context, the risk of obesity in IVF has increased to a higher level.
For test tube babies, it is very important to promote appropriate outdoor activities and sports. Parents can encourage their children to participate in sports, outdoor games, and limit the time they use electronic devices. This can help children increase physical activity and better control their weight.
summary
Test tube baby obesity is an increasingly serious problem, which has an important impact on children's health. Genetic factors, eating habits, sedentary and lack of exercise are the main causes of IVF obesity. In order to reduce the risk of obesity, parents need to develop healthy eating plans, develop good eating habits, and encourage children to participate in outdoor activities and sports. Through reasonable control and guidance, we can help IVF grow healthily.
