Patient's question:
What kind of yogurt is suitable for babies to drink. How can you determine if the baby is zinc deficient? Previous treatment history and effectiveness: my desired help: How can you determine if the baby is zinc deficient?Doctor's answer:
Babies under the age of three are not recommended to drink yogurt, as their digestive system has not fully developed. At this stage, drinking yogurt can easily cause nausea and vomiting. Yogurt contains a high sugar content, which can easily lead to a sweet tooth in babies, making them develop a rejection of sweet foods and potentially cause dental caries and poor eating habits. Babies should primarily rely on formula milk. This is because the biological availability of milk protein is higher than that of plant protein. Additionally, formula milk contains all the essential elements needed for a baby's growth and development.
