Patient's question:
Is it better to take calcium pills or get an injection? Our child has been like this for a while, and as parents, we are very worried. We hope the doctor can give us some advice.Doctor's answer:
Hello, baby oral is completely absorbable. Occasionally missing a dose once is not an issue. The most important thing for calcium supplementation is to see how well it is absorbed. If absorption is poor, taking more calcium won't help. You can take probiotics while supplementing with calcium, as they can actively absorb and lock in calcium, reducing calcium loss and promoting nutrient absorption. With good absorption, you won't lack calcium. You should also eat more foods high in calcium, such as milk, kelp, seaweed, shrimp skin, and animal liver. Try to minimize the consumption of foods high in phosphorus, such as carbonated drinks, cola, coffee, hamburgers, and pizza.
