Practice update: Bone health and calcium
Insufficient calcium intake may have a detrimental impact on bone health, making calcium a nutrient of concern. But what does research say about bone health, calcium, and the role of dairy products?
We’ve created a factsheet for Registered Dietitians providing key information to support you in your daily practice. Using current evidence-based research on calcium and bone health, this document covers calcium requirements, calcium content and bioavailability in common foods, and the role of dairy products in bone health and preventing osteoporosis.
To complement this comprehensive factsheet, we’ve created a brochure for patients with bone health and calcium information at a glance.
