THE
KNOW.HOW OF
CALCIUM SUPPLEMENTS
Vitamin
D
promotes absorption
of
calcium into
the
body.
Without it, the
body
may
only absorb less than
10%
of the
ingested calcium. Vitamin
D
comes from food or
is
being
synthesized
through the action of
ultraviolet ray on
the skin of the
body.
Take
vitamin
D
together with
calcium
supplements.
ln
old
people, because
of the
lack of
outdoor
activities
and sunshine
as
well
as
the
sub
optimal
body systems,
intake of vitamin
D is
even more impor-
tant.
However,
prolonged overdose of
vitamin
D
would lead to intoxication.
As
calcium my combine
with
phytic acid
present in vegetables, avoid taking
calcium supplements with
meals. Dia-
betics may
lose
more calcium in the
urine and as protein and vitamin
D
synthesis are both
sub
optimal, they
require at
least
1
G of calcium daily.
ln
normal individuals, there is a delicate
balance of
the
blood
calcium
level and
even if
2.5
G
ol calcium
is taken per
day,
there should not
be
adverse side
effects, provided that
the
intake of
vita-
min
D
is not excessive.
