Patient's question:
Children exposed to more sunlight help in calcium absorption, but it must be outdoors to be effective, right? Since the weather is too cold now, the indoor lighting in my home is very good. Is it effective to do it indoors?Doctor's answer:
Hello. If sunlight can directly reach indoors, it's no different from being outdoors in the sun. However, if glass is installed indoors and sunlight passes through it, the effect is definitely not good. It is not conducive to calcium absorption. In fact, as the weather gradually warms up, it's a good idea to take the baby outdoors to bask in the sun when the weather permits. This is beneficial for calcium absorption and also allows the baby to breathe fresh air. As long as the sunlight can shine directly, whether it's indoors or outdoors doesn't matter much.
