When pregnant women calcium supplement

At 19 weeks, the baby's sensory organs began to develop rapidly in accordance with the region. Taste, smell, touch, vision, and hearing develop from now on in specialized areas of the brain.

Some expectant mothers are prone to cramps during pregnancy, especially in the third and third trimesters. Some pregnant women often awaken at night due to calf cramps, which is mainly caused by dietary calcium deficiency. Therefore, calcium supplementation during the second trimester is a problem. Take special care.

Pregnant mothers need to provide various nutrients for the fetus after pregnancy, including protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, etc. In the late pregnancy, fetal bone growth requires a lot of calcium, phosphorus and other elements. In traditional Chinese diet, calcium intake is low. If the intake of calcium in the diet is insufficient, the mother needs to use her own reserves to supply the fetus, resulting in insufficient calcium in the pregnant woman's blood, increasing the excitability of the nerves and tendons, especially at night, when subjected to cold stimulation, or unconsciously When the leg is kicked, the calf muscle tendon of the calf is a common leg cramp. Timely and reasonable calcium supplementation can effectively prevent the occurrence of osteoporosis.

Due to the increased demand of pregnant women for calcium during pregnancy, the appropriate intake of calcium in the second trimester is 1000 milligrams per day, the appropriate intake of calcium per day in the third trimester is 1500 milligrams, and the appropriate intake of calcium lactate is 1200 milligrams per day. At the same time, you should take in enough vitamin D, but not excess. The main role of vitamin D is to promote the absorption of calcium in the small intestine and renal tubules. It has a dual role in bone, can promote bone formation, but also stimulate bone resorption.

In the diet, pregnant mothers should also eat more foods high in calcium, intake of milk and milk products, fish and various soy products, ribs soup, shrimp, sesame and other high-calcium foods. Milk and dairy products have high levels of calcium and are easily absorbed. Most foods contain different amounts of calcium, and milk and milk products contain higher absorption of calcium. However, the chemical composition of milk differs greatly between different species. Fermented yogurt is more conducive to the absorption of calcium. Milk, beans, and egg foods should be preferred.

Vitamin C supplementation is also very important. Vitamin C is one of the important substances involved in the metabolism of proteins, bone collagen, amino polysaccharides, etc., in bone tissue, and it has a catalytic effect on the enzyme system, which is beneficial to calcium absorption and deposition in bones. Therefore, pregnant mothers should eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, reasonable processing and cooking, can prevent the lack of vitamin C, can eat even the bones and shells of small fish shrimp also contain more calcium, especially small shrimp in aquatic products The skin contains more calcium, followed by kelp. Dried fruits, and soy products also contain more calcium. Cereals, meats, and birds contain little calcium.

In addition, there are a number of calcium products on the market, which make many mothers dazzled. The main sources of calcium used today are calcium carbonate, calcium lactate, calcium citrate and calcium gluconate. Calcium carbonate is used most in fortified foods and calcium preparations, and has high calcium content, no side effects, and low price. Although there are large individual differences in calcium carbonate absorption utilization, the average utilization rate of the large population is not significantly different from other forms of calcium and dairy products. However, calcium carbonate is not suitable for patients with stomach acid deficiency. Many calcium supplements also contain vitamin D, magnesium, and other minerals. People with renal insufficiency or those who need to limit the intake of certain nutrients have restrictions on the use of such products.

When taking calcium, expectant mothers should also pay attention, do not take calcium on an empty stomach, it is best to take it at the same time when eating, or take it half an hour after a meal; calcium can not be served with milk, otherwise it will cause a waste of calcium ; Calcium should also drink plenty of water to increase the solubility of calcium.
