Patient's question:
Under one year old with calcium deficiencyDoctor's answer:
You have two ways to supplement calcium: through calcium supplements and dietary calcium. The most common and traditional calcium-rich foods are dairy products, which not only contain abundant calcium but are also easily absorbed. Dairy products are also rich in minerals and vitamins, including vitamin D, which can promote calcium absorption and utilization. Yogurt is another excellent calcium-rich food. It not only helps with calcium supplementation but also contains beneficial bacteria that can regulate intestinal function, making it suitable for various populations. For those who dislike milk or are lactose intolerant, they can consume more alternative foods such as oysters, nori, cabbage, cauliflower, Chinese cabbage, daikon radish, kale, and pak choi.
