Under what circumstances is calcium supplementation needed?

Friends who have just become parents, have you provided your baby with enough calcium? Calcium supplement products may only refer to calcium tablets. Currently, there are many types of infant calcium supplement products on the market, which can be generally divided into three categories: calcium, cod liver oil and AD drops. Cod liver oil and AD drops both contain VD to promote calcium absorption. I-Molecular Casein Calcium Tablets are new compounds made by using modern biotechnology to react casein ions in milk with calcium ions. It has the dual functions of calcium and protein supplementation, and at the same time improves the absorption and utilization of calcium ions. The human body's absorption rate is as high as over 98%, which is 1.75 times that of calcium lactate, 2.15 times that of calcium carbonate, and 5.5 times that of shell calcium. It is an ideal new calcium supplement raw material that does not require the participation of VD.

1. Infants and young children under two years old: Due to less outdoor activities and short sunshine time, the production of vitamin D in the body is limited, which is not conducive to calcium absorption and easily leads to calcium deficiency. Therefore, children under two years old should pay attention to calcium and vitamin D supplementation, which is beneficial to the healthy growth of babies;

2. Premature babies, twins, children who grow too fast or are born in winter: These children are more likely to be calcium deficient than other children, so they should pay attention to prevent it in advance;

3. Children in the period of teething and tooth replacement: Paying attention to calcium supplementation during the period of teething and tooth replacement is beneficial to the healthy growth of teeth and avoids the occurrence of late teething, sparse teeth, uneven teeth, and tooth decay;

4. Children with overly good nutrition and overweight: These children need more calcium than ordinary children;

5. Children who are picky eaters, anorexic, have indigestion, have irrational diets, or don’t like to drink milk should pay attention to calcium supplementation;

6. Children in their growth spurt: Children grow rapidly in height during their growth spurt, and their bones’ calcium requirements also increase greatly. Calcium supplementation can help children grow taller and stronger, and they will not be as fragile as “bean sprouts”.

7. Sick children: When infants and young children are ill, such as eczema, recurrent respiratory tract infections, acute and chronic diarrhea, etc., these diseases can easily affect the absorption of calcium and cause symptoms of calcium deficiency. Therefore, parents should consider the reasonable supplementation of calcium and other nutrients while treating the disease when their children are ill.
