Patient's question:
The baby is now 41 days old and going to the hospital for a trace element check. Zinc: 35.1. Is it a lot lacking? If zinc needs to be supplemented, how long does it need to be supplemented for?Doctor's answer:
According to what you mentioned, the normal zinc level in children is 70-150. Based on the thorough examination results of your baby, it has been determined that there is a zinc deficiency. It is recommended to supplement zinc for your baby in a timely manner. You can purchase zinc oral liquid for babies at a pharmacy. In daily life, zinc is mainly found in seafood and animal organs, while other foods contain very little zinc. Water, staple foods, and egg dishes that children love almost contain no zinc, and the vegetables and fruits rich in zinc are also not very many. Lean meat, pork liver, fish, and egg yolks are examples.
