Question

How much milk should a baby drink? I’m not aware of this situation, and the baby’s spirits aren’t good either.

Answer

The stomach capacity of a normal 1-3 month-old baby ranges from 90 to 150 milliliters. The emptying time for water is 1.5 to 2 hours, for breast milk is 2 to 3 hours, and for formula milk is 3 to 4 hours. As for royal jelly, although it contains steroidal substances that are needed for children’s development, when it comes to ‘hormones and precocious puberty,’ children only need to take 1 milligram of royal jelly daily, whereas to produce ‘sex hormones,’ it would require consuming 100 grams of royal jelly daily, which is a thousandfold difference. Therefore, there is no basis for the claim that children should not take royal jelly.
