Precautions for calcium supplementation in pregnant women

The best time to supplement calcium is before going to bed.

Most people always take calcium tablets after meals according to the instructions on the calcium tablets. Dr. Chen said that calcium supplementation after meals is not ideal. The so-called "taking after meals" in the instructions is to avoid the stimulation of calcium tablets on gastric mucosa. Taking calcium tablets after meals, calcium and oil combine to form soap calcium, which will lead to constipation; Calcium oxalate combined with vegetables is easy to form stones, which is not conducive to the absorption of calcium.

You shouldn't just drink soup and milk to supplement calcium.

Many pregnant women don't know how much calcium they should take. It is clearly stipulated in "Human Nutrition" that calcium should be supplemented 800 mg per day in the first trimester, 1000- 1200 mg in the second trimester and 1200- 1500 mg at most. A daily meal can only provide less than 400 mg of calcium, and a cup of 250 ml of milk contains about 300 mg of calcium.

Most people think that bone soup is the best calcium supplement, so they just drink soup instead of meat. Dr. Chen specially reminded that it is not enough to drink soup to supplement calcium! "Bone calcium is basically insoluble in soup. 1 kg bone for 3-4 hours. 1 kg bone soup contains only 20-50 mg of calcium. Drinking soup alone is far from supplementing calcium. "

You shouldn't refuse to bask in the sun

With the arrival of summer, ultraviolet rays are getting stronger and stronger, and many expectant mothers often hide at home for the summer and don't want to go out to bask in the sun. Experts say that summer is not without the sun. Proper sunbathing for pregnant women is beneficial to the synthesis of vitamin D and the absorption of calcium in the body, but it is not allowed to sunbathe at noon, so it is necessary to avoid exposure. The recommended best time for sunbathing is before 10 in the morning and after 4 pm. You can sunbathe twice a day for about half an hour each time, or you can sunbathe every day 10 times the area of your hand 100 minutes.
