Patient's question:
How should I supplement for a deficiency in trace elements, specifically calcium? Thank you. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Not concerned about any help: Can taking calcium lactate and fish oil help?Doctor's answer:
I'll explain your question. A baby lacking calcium can easily interfere with the body's growth and development, so it's important to address it promptly.Recommendations:
For mild calcium deficiency, digesting calcium lactate and cod liver oil can be somewhat effective, or taking calcium gluconate oral liquid is also a good option.
For severe calcium deficiency, treatment with calcitriol (active form of vitamin D) may be necessary.
Exposure to sunlight is beneficial.
The above advice is for the question, "My 8-month-old baby was tested for trace elements and found to be calcium-deficient. How should I supplement it?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
