Question
How much calcium should an eight-month-old baby consume daily?
Answer
Calcium supplementation should be tailored to the baby’s specific condition. If the baby is severely deficient in calcium, the dosage can be appropriately increased; for mild deficiency, half a packet can be taken twice a day. For obvious deficiency, one packet can be taken twice a day. Additionally, ensure the baby gets plenty of sunlight and enhances nutritional intake. If the baby is breastfed, the mother should drink more chicken soup, fish soup, and bone broth. We hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish you good health!
