Calcium is the chief mineral found in the body, it is essential for growth, the maintenance of strong bones and healthy teeth and nails. Therefore it is particularly important for growing children and women who need to ensure maximum bone density to the menopause. The amount of Calcium our bodies absorb reduces as we get older but the amount we need remains the same, therefore the level of calcium in our bones decreases. For women the onset of the menopause can have a very damaging effect on the bones, the structure can begin to break down as the calcium reduces and the bones become brittle and break easily, the condition known as Osteoporosis can develop. It is recommended that women take a good calcium supplement prior to the onset of the menopause. Calcium is also required for blood clotting, transmission of signals in nerve cells and muscle contraction. Best taken in the evening with food for best absorption. 800-1000mg per day, adults over 50 increasing this to 1200mg.
