Question
How to choose the appropriate liquid calcium supplement for a three-month-old baby?
Answer
When choosing a liquid calcium supplement for a three-month-old baby, it’s best to prioritize food supplementation. Add foods rich in calcium to the daily diet, such as soups made with carrots, bok choy, and celery simmered over low heat, or add vinegar to fish soup, meat soup, and bone soup. For older children, you can offer mushrooms, seaweed, shrimp shells, and pork liver. Also, encourage the baby to get plenty of sunlight to promote calcium absorption, especially for babies born in winter. However, avoid exposure to cold and rain.
