Best Vitamin C for Toddlers Singapore 2022

Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin that is required for all body tissue growth, development, and repair. Vitamin C aids in the formation and maintenance of red blood cells, bones, and tissues. Moreover, it aids in the formation and strengthening of collagen in the bones, cartilage, muscles, and blood vessels and strengthens toddler’ immune system and helps to prevent infections.

Vitamin C Deficiency in Toddlers

In the United States, vitamin C deficiency is uncommon. The most common symptoms of vitamin C deficiency in children are musculoskeletal pain, petechiae/bruising, and gingival bleeding.

Because the human body cannot generate or store vitamin C on its own, it is vital that your child gets enough of vitamin C. They can acquire all of the vitamin C they require through their daily diet, but some toddlers may not get enough due to some reasons. So, here are the best vitamin C supplements for toddlers!

Top Recommended Gynaecologists in Singapore 2023

Almost all modern and top gynaecologists are also obstetricians and therefore the term obstetricians & gynecologists or O&G in short. The term 'gynecologist' is often mis-spelled as 'gynocologist' by laymen. In many areas, the specialties of gynaecology and obstetrics overlap. To select a doctor, many of us rely on a single recommendation or even a random search through the search engines. Your gynecologist or women’s health specialist assists you with your pregnancy, screens you for diseases, helps you plan a family and more. And when you are pregnant, this person (other than yourself) will understand your situation and is the one to ensure two people (you and your baby) are at the best possible health. However, choosing the right obstetrician and gynecologist (O&G) for your pregnancy and also the right place to deliver your baby may not be as simple as one might think. The list below is a long list. Please read this guide...
