Mother's milk provides an almost complete diet to the new-born, but it lacks which of the following?

  1. Iron
  2. Calcium
  3. Magnesium
  4. Potassium
సమాధానం చూపించు & వివరణ

సమాధానం: (A) Iron

వివరణ

Breast milk is low in iron (though well absorbed). Infants rely on iron stores from birth, so supplementation or complementary foods are needed after about 6 months.
