At the age of one and a half, all baby teeth have already sprouted. At this time, babies can eat a lot of food. If calcium supplementation is given to babies at this time, it is best for them to supplement their calcium intake through dietary supplements, such as eating more calcium rich foods. So what is a good calcium supplement for a one and a half year old baby?
1. Milk. Milk is rich in nutrients, and the content of calcium and phosphorus is very high, especially the calcium content is incomparable to many foods. Babies can drink more milk to supplement calcium, but it should be noted that babies under one year old cannot drink milk, which may cause indigestion.
2. Cheese. Cheese is a type of dairy product that contains the highest amount of calcium among dairy products. If babies can eat more cheese, it can have a very good calcium supplement effect. The calcium content of 40 grams of cheese is similar to that of 200 milliliters of milk.
3. Leguminous foods. Legumes contain a lot of calcium, but what mothers need to know is that babies under one year old are not suitable for eating soy products, which may cause allergies. However, babies under one and a half years old can eat a lot of soy products.
4. Seaweed. Kelp contains high protein, iodine, calcium, and many unsaturated fatty acids. Babies can eat some kelp to supplement calcium.
5. Shrimp skin. Shrimp skin contains a high amount of calcium, protein, and minerals. Eating more shrimp skin is the wisest choice for calcium supplements, and giving it to babies can also promote calcium supplementation.
