Question
How should a ten-month-old baby be supplemented with calcium? Their teeth are just starting to come in, and their hair is also very sparse. I previously bought a calcium supplement product that they didn’t like drinking. I would like to inquire about which foods can be used to supplement calcium, as well as how to solve the problem of sparse hair?
Answer
Foods suitable for ten-month-old babies to supplement calcium include formula milk, bean products such as tofu and soybeans, and bone broth. Although the method of food supplementation usually works more slowly and the baby’s digestive system is not fully developed, with limited digestive ability, it is therefore recommended to use specialized calcium supplements, such as glucocorticoid calcium. At the same time, it is also appropriate to consume fish liver oil to promote the absorption of calcium.
