Why is calcium important?
Many people’s diets contain insufficient calcium and that can contribute to the greater decline of bone mass with age. The Department of Health recommends that women should intake up to 1200mg of calcium per day, a level that is hard to achieve through diet alone, especially if the diet contains little dairy produce.
Is calcium necessary?
The body needs Vitamin D to absorb calcium. Without enough vitamin D, we cannot form enough “active vitamin D”, which of course leads to insufficient calcium absorption from the diet. Calcium supplements provide a convenient way to increase the intake of calcium, and have been shown to help slow the inevitable loss of bone mass that occurs as we get older.
