Taking adequate amounts of calcium and Vitamin D supplies the nutrients that help prevent or slow the progression of osteoporosis, (bone weakening) hip fractures, certain cancers and falls among the elderly. According to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), most Americans do not meet the recommended amounts of calcium or the current higher recommendation of vitamin D. Female adolescents have the lowest intakes overall. There are very few food sources rich in Vitamin D, and dependence on sun exposure for Vitamin D production presents several problems e.g. fears of skin cancer, sunburns, etc.
Why take this product?
