Currently, in general situations: After trace element testing, nothing is lacking, but I want to ask how to know if the baby is deficient in vitamins ABCDE?Doctor's answer:
Vitamin C deficiency typically takes about 3 to 4 months to show symptoms. In the early stages, there are no specific symptoms, but patients often exhibit pale complexion, fatigue, reduced appetite, and depression. In children, it may manifest as irritability, poor weight gain, and can be accompanied by low-grade fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. A trace element test can be conducted to confirm the diagnosis. In daily life, it is advisable to consume more fruits and vegetables to supplement vitamins. The key is not to be picky or fussy about food, to eat on time, and to maintain a regular diet. Avoid spicy foods and engage in regular exercise to enhance the body's resistance.
