How can babies get enough calcium?

Patient's question:

Hello! My son is six months old, and I want to supplement his calcium. Which kind of calcium is better to take?

Doctor's answer:

The most natural way to supplement calcium is to sunbathe. Sunbathing also requires a method—do not go out at noon when the sun is strongest. It is best to do it before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m. Sunbathing should be done outdoors, as it is ineffective through windows. When sunbathing, try to expose as much of the baby's skin as possible to get close to the sunlight. Additionally, combining dietary and medicinal supplementation yields better results. Give the baby more fish, shrimp, bone broth, and other calcium-rich foods. For medicinal supplementation, it is recommended to visit a hospital, where professional doctors can prescribe appropriate medication. Do not blindly supplement calcium without guidance.
