What does a three-month-old baby need to supplement?

Patient's question:

Does the baby need anything supplemented now? Is it better to supplement single calcium, iron, zinc, cod liver oil, or those compound vitamins?

Doctor's answer:

Vegetable juice, liver puree, and egg yolk do not need to be supplemented with simple vitamin products; it is best to get nutrients from food. When adding complementary foods, start with thin consistency and gradually increase the amount, then slowly introduce more varieties. To prevent rickets, expose the baby to sunlight for about half an hour each day to help synthesize vitamin D. Be sure to go out when the sun is gentle.
