Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:Seventy-eight days everyone says the baby is due for a calcium supplement, is that correct?
What kind of assistance you are looking for: I want to know if every baby needs to be given a calcium supplement...
Doctor's answer:
Yes, the baby is still young and in the initial stage of physical growth and development. Under certain conditions, appropriately digesting calcium for the baby can play a catalytic role in its growth and development! At the same time, it can also prevent the recurrence of many minor issues.Starting from the full moon, it is recommended to supplement calcium for the baby, and it is advisable to continue doing so until the age of 2 or 3. Beyond the issue of absorption, taking in excessive calcium without proper absorption is futile. Additionally, digesting AD (cod liver oil) can assist in calcium absorption and prevent rickets. Exposing the baby to sunlight also aids in calcium absorption, but it is essential to go outdoors rather than through a glass window, as ultraviolet rays cannot penetrate glass.
Moreover, the immature gastrointestinal system of infants can also interfere with absorption. It is recommended to supplement with probiotics such as Mimi Ai or Heshengyuan while taking calcium (rest assured, probiotics are not medicine and are beneficial in moderation). The immature gastrointestinal system is also a root cause of infantile eczema. Therefore, stabilizing the gastrointestinal system is key to preventing most of the baby’s illnesses.
The above suggestions are in response to the question, "Do all infants need calcium supplementation?" I hope this is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
