Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

This question asks about the nutritional consequence of a child consuming excessive amounts of milk while displacing other foods. 
Option a: Anemia. When milk replaces iron-rich foods, iron deficiency can develop because milk has very little iron and can interfere with iron absorption. Chronic overconsumption of low-iron milk is a well-known risk factor for iron-deficiency anemia in young children. 
Option b: Rickets. Rickets is caused by deficiency of vitamin D, calcium, or phosphate, typically from inadequate sunlight exposure or insufficient dietary sources other than milk, and is not the typical consequence of drinking too much milk unless calcium is extremely high without vitamin D, which is not the common scenario here. 
Option c: Calcium rigor. Calcium rigor refers to tetany from hypocalcemia, usually occurring in cases of severe calcium imbalance or deficiency; high milk intake would more likely supply calcium rather than cause this condition, making this option unlikely in the described scenario. 
Option d: Ariboflavinosis. Ariboflavinosis is a riboflavin (vitamin B2) deficiency that presents with sore throat, hyperemia, and cracks at the corners of the mouth. It is not a direct consequence of excessive milk consumption and is unrelated to the described dietary pattern. 
In summary, the pattern of drinking a lot of milk at the expense of other foods most plausibly leads to iron deficiency due to low iron intake and poor overall diet diversity, rather than the other listed conditions.
