Korean mother gives elementary school son a piece of fish and a small amount of anchovy as meal...controversy over possible child abuse

A geriatrician has sparked controversy over whether he is committing child abuse by feeding his elementary school-aged son a "slow-aging diet" aimed at promoting healthy aging.
Jeong Hee-won, a clinical assistant professor of geriatric medicine at Seoul Asan Hospital, said on the 3rd that X (formerly
On Twitter, she posted a picture of the tray with the caption "Dinner for my 4th grade son." The photo showed a piece of flounder, a small amount of anchovies, a piece of kamaboko, and rice with millet.
"Slow-aged rice for my son and grilled flounder in coconut oil. The rice contains 35% beans and grains, 15% glutinous rice, and 50% white rice," Professor Chung said.
Internet users who saw the post expressed concern for the health of the professor's son, saying that the portions were too small. Some even criticized Professor Jeong for "child abuse."
Professor Zheng responded, "This article is popular. It was taken while eating. I make sure that my children eat healthy food only at dinner. On the other hand, I make sure that my children eat snacks between meals and outside.
"I let her eat as much as she wants," she said, revealing the snack box. The snack box was filled with sweets such as granola, yokan, chocolate, and potato chips.
Professor Jeong said, "The reason why accelerated aging foods eaten in childhood are bad is that aging and growth share many paths. When accelerated aging foods cause nutritional distortion, the growth trajectory becomes distorted.
"It's not accelerated growth," he said. "There is a higher chance of developing metabolic diseases such as childhood obesity and precocious puberty. As a result, the child may grow up shorter than expected.
The problems continue into adulthood, and they are more likely to suffer from chronic diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure at an earlier age, as well as reproductive problems."
He added, "We have to use metabolic software for the rest of our lives. If we use it in the wrong way when we're young, it will have a negative effect on our metabolism for a longer period of time.
Professor Jeong recently published a book called "Slow Aging Diet: A Geriatrician's Guide to Miracle Meal Revolution." Professor Jeong has been researching aging for about 20 years and has
He also introduces the "Korean Mind Diet," which he developed to make it easy for people of all ages to follow.
