Question
Which kind of milk should children choose for calcium supplementation? Is it enough to consume milk alone to avoid additional calcium supplements?
Answer
Based on the parent’s description, the child is developing normally and has been consuming milk consistently. The doctor suggests that a blood test to measure trace elements can confirm whether additional calcium supplementation is needed. Regarding the choice between milk and yogurt, the doctor believes that consuming yogurt daily is a good decision, although it has slightly lower calcium content, it is more beneficial for health. The doctor advises a blood test to check for trace elements to determine if extra calcium supplementation is necessary.
