Nature's Point 6 in 1 Pure Milk Calcium

Having all the information on Calcium is the first step to the prevention of osteoporosis. Calcium is about so much more than just bones. Just about every cell in our bodies, including those in the heart, nerves and muscles, relies on calcium to function properly. And if your body doesn't get the calcium it needs from your diet, it will steal it from your bones, putting you at risk for osteoporosis. More prevalent in women, osteoporosis causes bones to become fragile and more likely to break.

Experts agree that we should get as much of the recommended daily intake of calcium as possible from our diet. But most people don’t. So a calcium-rich diet combined with a calcium supplement can be a good compromise.

Experts also agree that the best source of calcium is dairy products. So a calcium supplement based on milk just makes sense.

Plus Nature's Point 6 in 1 Pure Milk Calcium was developed to ensure that you get maximum calcium absorption, so that the calcium you’re taking doesn’t go to waste.


Information on Calcium For Good Health

In addition to maintaining a healthy skeleton, calcium is essential for many body functions, including regulating the heartbeat, and muscle contraction and relaxation. Research shows that calcium delivers a variety of health benefits:

• Calcium improves bone health: Giving your body enough calcium is important in the prevention of osteoporosis.
• Calcium reduces high blood pressure: Eating vegetables and fruit plus calcium-rich dairy products daily has been shown to lower high blood pressure in some people.
• Calcium is useful in the treatment of colon cancer: Calcium and other nutrients such as vitamin D may control the growth of cancer cells in the colon.
• Calcium is effective on kidney stones: People at risk for kidney stones used to be told to limit their calcium intake because most kidney stones are made of calcium salts. Current thinking is that calcium from food sources actually decreases stone risk.

Calcium Requirements at Different Life Stages

From the time we are very young, our parents tell us to drink milk for healthy teeth and bones. As adults, we need to maintain our calcium intake for the years that lie ahead, but often we’re not getting enough.

The National Academy of Sciences and the National Osteoporosis Foundation recommend daily calcium intakes of 1,000-1,200 mg/day for adult men and women.


Population Recommended Daily Calcium Intake

Hormones and vitamin D control the body's use of calcium. In fact, the body cannot absorb calcium without vitamin D, and recommended vitamin D intake is 400 IU per day. Immunotec Pure Milk Calcium has the ideal combination of calcium and vitamin D to make sure your body gets the most out of the calcium you’re taking.


Information and Tips on Calcium and Supplements

• Certain dietary factors can negatively affect calcium nutrition, including frequent dieting, excessive consumption of caffeine, alcohol and salt.
• Avoid calcium from sources such as unrefined oyster shell, bone meal or dolomite, which can contain high levels of toxic metals.
• Calcium is best absorbed in small amounts. A supplement with a low recommended dosage, taken several times a day, is ideal. Try taking 250 mg to 500 mg a day for a week, then add more calcium slowly.
• The amount of calcium per supplement dosage should not exceed 500 mg, since many foods contain calcium. In fact, the average American obtains 500-600 mg/day of calcium from their diet. There is no benefit to exceeding 2,000 mg of calcium per day.
• Evidence is emerging that lactose helps calcium absorption along with vitamin C.
