Are All Calcium Supplements Created Equally?
With 1 in 2 women and 1 in 5 men over the age of 50 predicted to break a bone as a result of Osteoporosis (often called the ‘silent disease’) looking after your bones is imperative.
Previously we’ve talked about how you can ‘Love Your Bones’ and keep them healthy. Part of keeping your bones in tip top condition is about maintaining a healthy balanced diet which includes a wide variety of foods from the four main food groups. A mixed, well-balanced diet will provide you and your body with all the vitamins and minerals you need including Calcium. Calcium is vital for teeth and bones because it gives them strength and rigidity.
However, some people struggle to maintain a balanced diet rich in Calcium and Vitamin D. If that’s you then do please consider taking a Calcium supplement as that should ensure that you get your recommended daily dose of Calcium which is so important for the upkeep of healthy bones.
One question we get asked a lot is “are all Calcium supplements the same”? The honest and short answer is no, they are not. There are two really important things to consider when choosing your Calcium supplement;
Does your Calcium supplement contain Vitamin D?
Some Calcium tablets do not contain Vitamin D. Vitamin D helps the body to absorb Calcium and is, therefore, an essential element of a good Calcium tablet
How quickly does your Calcium supplement dissolve?
Some Calcium tables dissolve faster than others. The faster the tablet or chew is absorbed the sooner it can start supporting your body
