How can babies get enough calcium?

Patient's question:

Adults and babies should supplement calcium. So, how can you find out how children supplement calcium?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it's best to get calcium from food for babies. Currently, dairy products like milk are rich in calcium and have high absorption rates, so it's recommended to prioritize dairy products, get plenty of sunlight to absorb ultraviolet rays, and promote the synthesis of vitamin D in the skin. You can also supplement with some ready-made calcium supplements. However, the ultimate advice is still to focus on dietary therapy as the primary method, with medication as a secondary option. You can eat more fruits, such as nuts, chestnuts, grapes, and apples, which also contain calcium. Just don't be too picky about your diet. Sleep doesn't need to be a concern—when calcium is deficient, the worst that might happen is excessive sweating, but you'll still have a good energy level the next day, so there's no need to worry.
