Question

How to treat a baby with sparse hair and dull hair color?

Answer

Sparse hair and dullness can have various causes, often due to malnutrition, such as a deficiency in trace elements like zinc, calcium, and iron. Here are some suggestions:

  1. Revamp the diet structure to ensure a variety of foods, including plenty of fruits and vegetables, to guarantee sufficient nutrition.
  2. Have a thorough check-up for trace elements at the hospital and supplement what is lacking by eating foods rich in these nutrients.
  3. If multiple elements are deficient, it’s best to take them separately to avoid interference with absorption. For instance, if taking zinc and calcium simultaneously, it’s advisable to wait at least three hours between them; calcium in the morning and zinc in the afternoon. Additionally, you can have your child drink colostrum, such as Soul Yangguang colostrum, which aids in iron absorption, blood indicators, and the health of the intestines and respiratory tract. Wishing your baby health and happiness!
