Drinking Orange Juice Much Good?

In the hot season, when children saw the disease, I tried to supplement vitamin C with orange juice. But I'm afraid the baby's stomach can't stand the acidity much. How to drink orange juice well? Can vitamin C supplements be replaced?

Orange juice is an ideal source of vitamin C supplement, especially for young children. However, drinking properly so that the body absorbs well is also a problem. You do not specify how old your baby is, so I would like to answer a few things to keep in mind:
Children under six months should not use orange juice

. Over six months to under one year of age can be used but should be limited, if used to dilute. Do not give your child orange juice on an empty stomach, near meals (just before or after eating) or at the end of the day, especially before going to bed.
Do not mix oranges with milk or drink orange juice close to the milk, so drink two at least 45 minutes apart
Do not drink too much.



For children one to two years old, the daily amount of orange juice should only be 100ml - 150ml. Drink immediately after squeezing.
Taking vitamin C from natural sources like fresh orange juice is always better than taking supplements, especially for children. When you need to take additional tablets according to the doctor's instructions.
In addition to orange juice, there are many other fruit juices that are also very abundant in vitamin C such as strawberries, cherry, apple, guava .. Babies can eat or squeeze drinking water that are suitable.
