Answer

It is recommended to increase the intake of calcium-rich foods, engage in more physical activities, get plenty of sunlight, and have a good breakfast. For vegetables containing oxalic acid, it is advisable to blanch them in water first to break down the oxalic acid before cooking. Additionally, when choosing calcium supplements, it should be followed by principles of safety without side effects, high content, and high absorption rate. Calcium carbonate is the type with the highest calcium content, with an absorption rate of up to 39%, which can dissolve in stomach acid. It is the most available and widely used form of calcium supplement.
