Features: Calcium is the main element for children's growth and development, playing a crucial role in the body's growth, development, and metabolism. Calcium is an essential component of human bones, which have the important functions of supporting the body and protecting organs. When the body lacks calcium, it can lead to conditions such as osteoporosis, bone hyperplasia, fractures, and cartilage diseases. Calcium directly participates in the excitation process of nerves and muscles, as well as in the blood clotting process. It is both a necessary substance for maintaining the integrity and permeability of cell membranes and a necessary substance for maintaining the balance of bone acid in the body and regulating many biochemical processes. Specific manifestations of calcium deficiency in children include fatigue, lethargy, poor endurance, easy sweating, dizziness, and in some cases, night sweats, restlessness, reduced sleep, weakness in the lower limbs, numbness in the limbs, and calf cramps. Additionally, calcium deficiency in children can cause abdominal pain, growth retardation, tetany, and even affect physical development, brain development, and immunity. Each dish listed in the book is a daily recipe, with most containing over 600 milligrams of calcium, aiming to provide guidance for children in urban and rural families to supplement calcium.
