In order to provide a comprehensive supplement to the baby's body, many mothers choose to add cod liver oil and calcium supplements, which can effectively promote bones and promote comprehensive tooth development. However, some people may have various doubts during the process of eating cod liver oil and calcium. So, how old should cod liver oil and calcium be consumed?
1. After the baby reaches the age of two, they can stop eating cod liver oil and calcium. At this time, a variety of nutrients can be supplemented through food, such as eating more soy products, as well as deep-sea fish, seaweed, shrimp, and adding green vegetables. Cooking should be done correctly and avoid using a large amount of high-temperature frying, as the nutrients in the ingredients will be lost and not play their due role.
2. After the baby is one month old, it is advisable to add cod liver oil at a reasonable time and choose to eat it at a fixed time for better absorption. After adding complementary foods, do not stop breastfeeding or formula feeding. While supplementing calcium, do not let the baby eat onions, scallions, and spinach because these ingredients contain certain acidic substances that can prevent calcium absorption and reduce the effectiveness of supplementation.
3. While supplementing calcium, it is also important to encourage babies to engage in physical exercise outside and receive proper exposure to sunlight. This can help accelerate the absorption of calcium elements. In hot weather or after exercise, it is recommended to encourage babies to drink more mild boiled water or fresh fruit juice.
