Are you getting enough calcium????
Calcium
Benefits:
Everyone needs calcium to keep bones strong and to help prevent such diseases as osteoporosis and arthritis. It’s also important for transmitting nerve impulses and regulating mood and blood pressure. Calcium may reduce premenstrual symptoms.
Limit salt intake and get your daily dose of vitamin D to help your body and bones absorb and keep calcium.
RealAge Optimum:
You can make your RealAge as much as 1.3 years younger by taking 1,200 mg of calcium per day (400 mg three times per day), along with 400 IU of vitamin D per day, from food or supplements. Don’t take iron or fiber supplements with your calcium, as both interfere with the absorption of calcium.
