really
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that all infants and children, starting shortly after birth, have a minimum daily intake of 400 IU of vitamin D. Infants are likely to require supplemental vitamin D because infants consume large quantities of infant formula. infants have poor intestinal absorption of vitamin D. breast milk is a poor source of vitamin D. social customs expose infants to too much sun.
I'd say C
its correct .
