Yintoni kanye kanye iMelatonin?
Ngamafutshane, i-melatonin yi-hormone eveliswa ngokwendalo yi-pineal gland engqondweni yethu. Umsebenzi wayo ophambili kukulawula isigqi sethu se-circadian, iwotshi yomzimba elawula ukulala kwethu nokuvuka kwethu. Xa kumnyama, ingqondo yethu iqala ukukhupha i-melatonin. Oku kusenza sizive silele kwaye kusinceda silale.
Kodwa into esiyithengayo kwikhemesti sisongezelelo esenziwe ukuze sifane nale hormone yendalo. Esi asithengiswa njengeyeza, kodwa sithengiswa njengesongezelelo sokutya kumazwe amaninzi.
Umngcipheko uyanda xa kusetyenziswa kakhulu
Kutshanje, ukusetyenziswa kwe-melatonin kuye kwanda kakhulu, ingakumbi phakathi kwabantwana. Kunye noku, kubekho ukwanda okukhulu kwinani labangeniswa kwigumbi longxamiseko (ETU) kunye neefowuni eziya kwiZiko loLwazi lweTyhefu leSizwe kwiSibhedlele sikaZwelonke saseColombo ngenxa yokugqithisa ngengozi i-melatonin ngabantwana.
Eyona sizathu siphambili soku ziimpazamo ezenziwa ngabantwana abangaphantsi kweminyaka emi-5 ubudala. I-Melatonin idla ngokuza ngohlobo lweejeli ezinencasa (ii-gummies), kwiincasa ezahlukeneyo zeziqhamo. Ke ngoko, abantwana abancinci bacinga ukuba ezi luhlobo lweelekese kwaye batya kakhulu ngaxeshanye. Le ngozi iyanda ngakumbi kukuba ezi zihlala zingenazo isiciko esingakhuselekanga ebantwaneni esingenakuvulwa ngabantwana, njengamayeza aqhelekileyo.
Khawucinge nje, ibhotile yakho yemelatonin ibekwe etafileni. Kuthekani ukuba intombi yakho eneminyaka emi-4 ubudala iyayibona, icinga ukuba ziibhola zejeli ezimnandi, ize iyitye yonke? Ezi ziganeko zixelwa rhoqo. Ngoko ke imelatonin ayisiyonto ilungileyo ukuyigcina ikufutshane nabantwana.
Yintoni omawuyenze ukuba umntwana usela iMelatonin ngengozi?
Kubalulekile ukuba ungoyiki xa kwenzeka into efana nale. Kwakhona, kufuneka uqwalasele iimpawu zomntwana wakho kwaye uthathe amanyathelo afunekayo.
| Uphawu | Oko kufuneka ukwenze |
|---|---|
| Ukulala kakhulu | Le yeyona miphumo ixhaphakileyo. Nika ingqalelo ekuphefumleni komntwana. Mbethe kancinci uze umchukumise umntwana ukuze ubone ukuba usabela kakuhle na. |
| Ukuphazamiseka kwesisu, isicaphucaphu, urhudo | Oku kunokwenzeka ngakumbi emva kokutya ii-gummies. Njengomntwana otya iilekese ezininzi ngaxeshanye. Ungaze uzame ukukubangela ukuba uhlanze. |
| Ukuba unale mpawu, yiya kwiYunithi yoNyango oluNgxamisekileyo (ETU) yesibhedlele ngoko nangoko! | |
| Ubunzima bokuphefumla | Ukuba ukuphefumla komntwana akuhambelani kakuhle okanye kubonakala ngathi unengxaki yokuphefumla, mse esibhedlele ngoko nangoko. |
| Ubuthongo obunzulu obungenakuvuswa | Ukuba awukwazi ukuvusa umntwana nokuba uzama kangakanani na, olo luphawu oluyingozi. Mse kwi-ETU ngoko nangoko. |
| Ukungcangcazela okungaqhelekanga okanye ukubona izinto ezingekhoyo | Nangona ezi zinqabile, zinokuba ziimpendulo eziyingozi. Kwimeko ezinjalo, ukulaliswa esibhedlele nako kuyimfuneko. |
Ukuba ufuna ingcebiso engaphezulu ngale nto, ungatsalela umnxeba iZiko loLwazi ngeTyhefu leSizwe elikwiSibhedlele sikaZwelonke saseColombo ngenombolo yabo yefowuni.
Iingxaki ngeMelatonin ethengwe kwikhemesti
Le yinto abantu abaninzi abangayaziyo. Ngenxa yokuba i-melatonin ithengiswa njengesongezelelo, ayilawulwa yimithetho engqongqo efanayo namayeza aqhelekileyo. Oku kunokubangela iingxaki ezimbini ezinkulu.
1. Ukungangqinelani komlinganiselo: Olunye uphando lufumanise ukuba ezinye iibhotile ze-melatonin zinokuba ne-melatonin engaphezulu okanye engaphantsi kwe-83% ukuya kwi-478% kunomlinganiselo ochazwe kwileyibhile. Oku kuthetha ukuba umthamo ocinga ukuba umntwana wakho uyawufumana awusiwo umthamo awufumanayo ngokwenene.
2.Ezinye izithako: Ezinye iimveliso ze-melatonin zifunyenwe ziqulathe amanani amancinci ezinye iikhemikhali ezinamandla (ii-neurotransmitters) ezifana ne-serotonin, ekufuneka zithathwe kuphela ngomyalelo kagqirha. Le yimeko eyingozi kakhulu.
Ngaba ukhe wazama ezi zinto ngaphambi kokuba unike iyeza?
Ngaphambi kokuba ugqirha anike umntwana amayeza engxaki yokulala, uqala ngokujonga ukuba umntwana usebenzisa "ucoceko lokulala." Kuba kwiimeko ezininzi, ukuba le mikhwa ilandelwa ngokuchanekileyo, ingxaki ingasonjululwa ngaphandle kwamayeza.
| Ucoceko lokulala | Inkcazo |
|---|---|
| Ixesha lokulala elibekiweyo | Lalisa umntwana wakho ngexesha elifanayo iintsuku ezisi-7 ngeveki. Ukumlalisa emva kweeyure ezi-2-3 ngeempelaveki nako kuyamphazamisa umntwana wakho. |
| Umsebenzi wokuzola ngaphambi kokulala | Menze umntwana wakho aqhele into ethile ngaphambi kokuba alale, njengokufunda incwadi, ukumamela umculo othomalalisayo, okanye ukuhlamba emanzini afudumeleyo. |
| Indawo yokulala elungileyo | Igumbi lokulala lifanele libe pholile, libe mnyama, kwaye lizole. Ukusebenzisa amakhethini amnyama kunokunceda kakhulu. |
| Indawo engenadijithali | Yeka ukunika umntwana wakho izinto ezifana neTV, ifowuni, kunye ne-tab ubuncinane iyure ngaphambi kokuba alale. Ukukhanya kwabo okuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka kuthintela ukuveliswa kwe-melatonin. |
| Ukutya kunye nokuzilolonga | Kuphephe ukunika ukutya okune-caffeine okufana nekofu, iti, kunye netshokholethi emva kwesidlo sasemini. Akukhuthazwa ukubaleka nokutsiba umthambo kwiiyure ezi-2 ngaphambi kokuba ulale. |
| Ukuphepha ukulala emini | Ukuba umntwana wakho uneminyaka engaphezu kwemi-5 ubudala, musa ukumvumela ukuba alale emini. Oku kunokuphazamisana nokulala kwakhe ebusuku. |
"Ngaphambi kokuba ndinike umntu amayeza, ndijonga ukuba unazo na ezi ndlela zokulala ezilungileyo. Ngokuqhelekileyo, olu tshintsho lokuziphatha lunokusombulula iingxaki. Imizimba yabantwana iqhelana ngokukhawuleza nesiqhelo."
Ngoko ke, ngaphambi kokuba ucinge ngemelatonin, zama le mikhwa. Kodwa ukuba ingxaki ayisombuluki, bona ugqirha wakho ukuze akunike icebiso. Kukho amaxesha apho imelatonin inikwa abantwana abaneemeko ezithile, ezifana nokungakwazi ukunikel’ ingqalelo/ukuphazamiseka kwengqondo (ADHD) okanye i-autism. Kodwa eso sigqibo kufuneka senziwe ngugqirha ohlola umntwana wakho.
Umyalezo Wokuya Ekhaya
- IMelatonin ayilolekese, yihormone. Musa ukuyishiya apho abantwana banokuyifumana khona ngokulula.
- Soloko uthetha nogqirha wakho ngaphambi kokuba unike umntwana i-melatonin. Ungaze uyinike umntwana wedwa.
- Kusenokubakho iingxaki ngomgangatho weMelatonin ethengwe kwikhemesti kunye nokuchaneka komthamo okwileyibhile.
- Ngaphambi kokuba usebenzise amayeza, kubaluleke kakhulu ukumisela imikhwa emihle yokulala (Sleep Hygiene). Kwiimeko ezininzi, ingxaki ingasonjululwa apho.
- Ukuba umntwana ngempazamo usele iMelatonin eninzi, unengxaki yokuphefumla, okanye akakwazi ukuvuswa, mse kwiYunithi yoNyango oluNgxamisekileyo (ETU) yesibhedlele ngoko nangoko.
