Patient's question:
Pregnant women with reduced bone mass should eat what foods?Doctor's answer:
Choose the best time to supplement calciumCalcium can easily combine with oxalic acid, phytic acid, and other substances, affecting calcium absorption. Therefore, the best time to supplement calcium should be before going to bed or between meals. It is important to leave a gap between the time of taking calcium and going to bed. It is best to rest for half an hour after dinner, as blood calcium levels are lowest in the second half of the night and in the morning, making it the most suitable time for calcium supplementation. There are two ways to supplement calcium: calcium supplements and dietary calcium. The most common and traditional calcium-rich foods are dairy products, which not only contain rich calcium but are also easily absorbed. Dairy products are also rich in minerals and vitamins, including vitamin D, which can promote calcium absorption and utilization. Yogurt is also a very good calcium-rich food.
