The need for calcium of particular concern

But for most women is particularly important to take care of adequate calcium intake, says Dr. Worthington-Roberts. Above all, this applies to adolescents. "After the start menstruirovaniya, aged 11 to 24, continues the growth of the body, and there is a significant development of the bones, she said. Therefore intake of calcium is of particular importance. "
Calcium continues to be an important component of nutrition and in his mature years. "Take care of your bones while you are young, recommends Dr. Worthington-Roberts. Eat high quality, aged between 11 and 30 years you have to eat food that contains a lot of calcium and of vitamin D, because since 35 years in all women is a loss of bone tissue, and the rate of loss is increasing. "
In order to provide the body's need for calcium, eat dairy products with low fat diet, green leafy vegetables and calcium-fortified breakfast cereal. "From young girls are concerned about their figure, it will require some effort," says Dr. UortingtonRoberts.
Relatively good sources of calcium include salmon, salmon with bones, sardines, collard greens. But they are again not typical diet of modern women.
What to do? Use supplements. "This addition to the highest content of calcium in one tablet is calcium carbonate, which contains 40 percent of pure calcium, says Dr. Worthington-Roberts. The calcium gluconate contains about 10 percent pure calcium, so it should be consumed in larger quantities to get the same result. " If the use of calcium carbonate lead to constipation, causes the formation of gases, can resort to the addition of other calcium citrate, which is better tolerated, although less pure and contains calcium.
