Patient's question:
Lately, I haven't been able to sleep peacefully during my nap. During the day and at night, I fall asleep and then wake up again and again. I kick the blanket, sweat, and cry out for my mom, saying my legs hurt. At 1.5 years old, I have only grown two sets of upper teeth and three lower teeth. My forehead is noticeably prominent. What kind of assistance is needed: How should I supplement calcium if the baby is calcium-deficient? How should I take it to ensure safety?Doctor's answer:
Children grow and develop very rapidly, and bone growth requires a greater amount of calcium. For infants, the primary source of calcium should not be calcium powder but rather foods rich in calcium. Breast milk and colostrum from Soul Sunshine cow all contain rich calcium. For example, 100 milliliters of colostrum can contain up to 50 milligrams of calcium, while breast milk contains 30 milligrams of calcium. Additionally, milk calcium is easily digested by infants. While supplementing calcium through milk, it also enhances the intake of protein in milk, making milk the best calcium supplement for infants. Therefore, calcium supplementation for infants should primarily rely on dietary intake.To ensure that calcium is fully digested and utilized by infants, it is important to encourage them to spend more time outdoors. Exposure of the skin to ultraviolet rays can produce endogenous vitamin D, which enhances the body's ability to digest and utilize calcium.
