Experts believe that if 90% of children need calcium supplementation, it indicates that they have entered a misconception. If calcium is consumed in large amounts, it can increase the burden on the kidneys, especially when children's kidneys are not yet mature. For safety reasons, it is not recommended to take more calcium supplements.
The reminder from experts has sounded the alarm for the trend of calcium supplementation in children, as stated in a research report on the Chinese calcium supplement market: "The entire calcium supplement industry has encountered a crisis of trust." Adopting a scientific and calm attitude towards calcium supplementation and cooling down the calcium supplement market may be an effective means to cut off the chain of benefits of calcium supplementation.
