This is, also known as a calcium ring, caused by calcium deficiency.Guidance: For an eight-month-old child, the daily calcium requirement for infants under one year is 400mg, and vitamin D is 300IU. However, since there is some digestion in breast milk or formula, and sunlight can help the body generate vitamin D, it is recommended to provide an additional 1/2 to 2/3 based on the baby's intake. Providing 150~200IU is sufficient.
